He wears a long gold ceremonial necklace with rudraksha beads and a gold-trimmed shawl, and holds a folded white paper in his left hand. Behind him, a man with slicked-back hair wears a red tilak and white-and-gold garments, and a blurred golden deity shrine and red drapes fill the background. Several other people in white and dark clothing stand nearby.
