A smiling man sits cross-legged on an ornate gold-carved throne with a deep red cushioned seat and carved lion-paw armrests. He wears a red saffron-toned robe draped over his shoulder, a red sash with gold border, a gold pendant on a gold chain, and a long crystal and beaded mala necklace. A red bindi and white tilak mark his forehead, and a thin red-brown thread is tied around his upper arm. His hands rest clasped in his lap. A microphone on a flexible stand is angled toward him. Behind him, a yellow and orange draped cloth and a purple fabric hang, with a bouquet of flowers at the right edge.
