A photograph on a stage with a red backdrop. A young shirtless attendant in orange dhoti and orange shawl, with rudraksha malas on his arms and chest and white tilak on his forehead, bends forward and offers a covered offering wrapped in white cloth on a silver tray. Seated on an ornate silver throne with leopard-print cushions is a bearded man with long hair, wearing a red-orange robe, rudraksha mala and gold chain, with white marks on his forehead, smiling as he receives it. Marigold garlands lie at the base of the throne beside silver staves, and a microphone stands at the right edge.
