Christie projectors are powering the visual component of the Rudra Sagar light and sound shows in the ancient city of Ujjain in Madhya Pradesh, where immersive imagery is projected across three synchronised water screens and at the Mahakal Lok Lotus Pond in an open-air setting.
Conceived and executed by CS Direkt Events & Exhibitions, the large-scale installation was designed as a multimedia experience and devotional journey to deepen spiritual engagement while preserving the sanctity of one of India’s most revered religious environments.
Three Griffyn 4K50-RGB projectors are used for the water-screen mapping show, delivering panoramic imagery across a fountain stretch of nearly 100 metres on the sacred Rudra Sagar Lake. Configured for long-distance projection, the system creates a visual canvas spanning three synchronised water screens over approximately 90 metres.
The Christie projection systems extend to the Lotus Pond within the Mahakal Lok Corridor, where two Griffyn 4K35-RGB pure laser projectors display imagery on a retractable screen, while three 4K22-HS 1DLP laser projectors illuminate a 10-metre-high statue of Lord Shiva.
The installation presented complex challenges, including long projection distances, extreme heat, dust and humidity, low water levels, and strict restrictions on permanent construction within an active sacred site.
