A photograph of a barefoot man in a saffron-orange dhoti and shawl with a rudraksha mala around his neck, standing with palms pressed together in namaste on an orange cloth carpet in a covered open-sided hall with orange walls and a corrugated roof. Behind him a line of women and girls in white saris with orange or saffron borders and shawls stand with hands folded in prayer. To the left is a gold-trimmed wooden seat with a red cushion, a microphone on a stand, and a brass kalasha. A red carpet runs across the floor and a cameraperson stands at right. The man's cues (long swept-back hair, saffron garments, rudraksha mala) fit the a person candidate, but his face is not clearly confirmed, so this is an unsure appearance-based candidate in person.
