A seated man in an orange saffron garment sits eyes closed on an ornate gold throne with red cushions against a dark blue draped backdrop. He wears a red bindi, a long gold chain with a pendant and a rudraksha mala, with long dark hair swept back. His hands rest folded in his lap. Silhouetted heads of audience members fill the foreground, and a microphone stands at right.
