A man with long, swept-back dark hair stands on a gold-decorated stage in front of a golden throne (peetha) draped with yellow marigold garlands, palms pressed together in namaste. He wears a bright blue silk dhoti and upper cloth with an orange sash, gold chains, a rudraksha-style necklace and gold armbands and bangles. Behind him is a large backdrop of a deity murti adorned with red, green and white floral garlands, a gold ceremonial staff with a leaf-shaped finial, and a glowing lamp image. Hanging golden lanterns hang from the top of the frame. A printed banner reads Skanda Brahma... and the backdrop has the word Celebrations partly visible.
