Outdoor crowd scene under a pale sky with trees behind. In the centre a smiling man with a shaved head, round wire-framed glasses, and a dark rudraksha mala draped over a white t-shirt, with a yellow lanyard and a clear badge hanging at his chest. Around him several people in white and cream t-shirts, grey and yellow tops, and a man in dark sunglasses stand close together, many with shaved heads and some wearing rudraksha malas. The central man has no long hair, crown, saffron garment or ceremonial gold necklace, so no a person candidate is visible.
