Two young female dancers perform on a raised stage with red velvet draping in a hall with pink walls, framed portraits and a wall-mounted air conditioner. The dancer in front kneels on one knee in a red choli with gold trim, white dhoti-style skirt, gold waist belt and jewelled headpiece, pointing her finger. The dancer behind stands in a red and gold blouse with white skirt, one hand raised, her hair decorated with flowers. A golden ornate frame and ceremonial umbrellas with mirrored fringe stand beside them. Seated at the stage edge, a man in white ritual clothes holds his hands in anjali, and audience members in front wear white and saffron shawls.
