A crowded outdoor scene of devotees pressing around a central figure with a shaved-head priest-like bearing and ornate garlands. The central man has long swept-back dark hair, a white forehead marking, a saffron-orange shawl over bare shoulders, multiple rudraksha-style beaded necklaces and a gold ceremonial chain, and he is smiling with hands raised in greeting. Two other saffron-robed men with shaved heads and gold necklaces stand behind him. Around them, people in colourful clothing, including a woman in red and a woman in a blue headscarf, reach toward him, and a man in a grey shirt with a blue lanyard stands near. A large crowd of onlookers and uniformed officials surrounds the group under a banner with a portrait.2013-02-09July 04 20142014-07-04 +1 copiesSeptember 12 20122012-09-12A crowded indoor scene where a central figure in saffron-orange cloth with heavy gold necklaces, a red-and-gold headband and a red bindi on the forehead smiles while reaching out to devotees.
