A man seated on an ornate gold throne with a red velvet back and cushion, wearing an orange saffron robe with gold-bordered drapes and a gold-threaded sash. He wears a long beaded gold necklace with a gold pendant, a red bindi and a vertical tilak on his forehead, and holds both palms together in front of his chest in a greeting gesture. Before the throne sits a tray with rose petals, red apples and small silver vessels. The gold throne has carved lion-like armrests. Background shows a large backdrop with a red and blue cloth and a microphone stand. The man is in a ceremonial setting, with the swami cue of saffron robe and gold adornments present, so this is a person in person.
