He wears a gold ornate crown, a red and gold garland, and a long gold bead necklace over a white and cream dhoti-style cloth. A red tilak mark is on his forehead. The vehicle is draped with yellow marigold garlands, purple and white flower strands, red and orange tassels, and a green tassel, with a maroon velvet seat in the foreground.
