A man with short dark hair and a white-and-red forehead mark sits on an ornate gold throne with a large repoussé backrest. He wears an orange saffron cloth draped over one shoulder with a maroon border, multiple strands of brown rudraksha beads around his neck, and a rudraksha band on his upper arm. His hands rest clasped in his lap. A small microphone sits on the red cushion beside him, and red and gold drapery hangs in the background. Appearance cues are saffron clothing and rudraksha malas on a throne, but the face and hairstyle are not distinctive enough to confirm identity, so the speaker is described by role only.
