A man in saffron-orange robes sits cross-legged on an ornate gold throne decorated with yellow marigold and green leaf garlands with purple and red flowers, hands pressed together in namaste. He wears a rudraksha mala and a red tilak on his forehead, with long dark hair. Gold-carved side pedestals flank the throne, one holding a tray of fruit. A microphone stands nearby. Behind him a red banner reads Dasara and Celebrate Mother, with a Kannada heading, and a golden deity figure is partly visible at right. Swamiji (probable): the figure is seated on a throne in saffron robes with rudraksha mala and long hair, so the person is a probable candidate. The shoulders and orange robe match the distinctive presentation.
