Christie recently announced that its Griffyn Series RGB pure laser projectors are
illuminating the
facade of the Sri Krishna Janmabhoomi Temple for a spectacular son et lumiere that pays
homage to
the timeless legends of Lord Krishna.
Situated in Mathura, a sacred city in India's northern state of Uttar Pradesh, the Sri Krishna
Janmabhoomi Temple is traditionally regarded as the birthplace of Lord Krishna, one of the most
widely revered divinities in Hinduism. With its origins dating back to the 6th century BC, this
temple stands as a site of profound importance and ranks among India's most frequented religious
destinations.
The nightly 40-minute light and sound show which portrays Lord Krishna's life as a symbol of
tenderness, patience, compassion, and love, was inaugurated by Agra's Chief Minister, Yogi
Adityanath. This mesmerizing presentation was accomplished by eight Christie Griffyn
4K32-RGB pure
laser projectors, meticulously installed and commissioned by Modern Stage Service, a renowned
systems integrator recognized for numerous projection mapping projects across India. Its portfolio
includes prominent landmarks such as the Old Fort in New Delhi and the Sanchi Stupa in Madhya
Pradesh.
"Bringing the legend of Lord Krishna to life through the captivating fusion of light and sound has
been an incredible journey," said Kartik Wadhwa, director of Modern Stage Service. "We are
delighted
to partner with Christie to strategically deploy the Griffyn Series projectors in weatherproof
enclosures at the Sri Krishna Janmabhoomi Temple for this highly anticipated son et lumiere, which
reaffirms our commitment to delivering awe-inspiring visual experiences at one of India's most
cherished landmarks."

Rishubh Nayar, sales director for India, Enterprise, Christie, added, "This new light and
sound show at the Sri Krishna Janmabhoomi Temple is a testament to the enduring power of
storytelling through projection technology, and we are honored to be a part of this iconic endeavor.
The Griffyn Series projectors not only bring historical narratives to life, but also showcase the
immense potential of visual artistry at this sacred site, enriching the spiritual and cultural
experience for countless pilgrims and visitors."
The selection of the Griffyn Series for this prestigious project was a natural choice, given its
exceptional track record of illuminating large-scale monuments and venues across India, such as the
Statue of Equality in Telangana and BAPS Sri Swaminarayan Mandir in Gondal. Known for its
unparalleled image quality and superior performance, the Griffyn Series has consistently delivered
impressive visuals that have left a lasting impact on audiences.
With lumen options ranging from 36,500 to 50,000, the all-in-one Griffyn Series is among the
smallest, lightest, and brightest RGB pure laser projectors available. Equipped with Christie
TruLife+ electronics platform for all-in connectivity and electronic color convergence (ECC) that
allows for perfect color alignment, this 3DLP® projector series can produce greater than 98% of the
Rec.2020 color space, resulting in richer and true-to-life colors. As well, the Griffyn Series comes
with integrated Christie Twist for warping and blending, and is compatible with Christie Mystique,
automated camera-based alignment software solution that can quickly manage and maintain
multi-projection systems.
