He wears a multicoloured striped turban, a red bindi on his forehead, a saffron-orange robe draped over his shoulders and bare chest-to-chest with a saffron wrap, and a long strand of golden beaded necklace. His hands rest folded in his lap and he smiles calmly. Behind him is a red banner with large lettering reading 'Dasara' and partial 'Celebrating' and 'Mother' text, with a swirl design.
