A photograph of a ceremonial reception on a stage. A bald man in saffron-orange robes sits on an ornate gold-and-red throne draped in heavy red and white flower garlands, with a golden crown-like ornament above. Two people in orange clothing stand at left: one holds a woven basket of fruit, the other wears a deep orange-red turban and palms together in greeting. A man in a yellow patterned shawl bends to place a garland at the seated man's feet, and a person in white stands at the right edge. A banner behind shows Kannada script and a large bold line of text. Those on the throne appear to be the honoured guest; the seated man is an appearance-based a person candidate, with a saffron robe and a red mark on the forehead, though identity is uncertain.
