A man in saffron-red robes sits on an ornate gold throne with carved lion-like arms against a deep red curtain, beneath a red and gold canopy with colourful tassels. He wears a long gold-bead necklace, a rudraksha mala, gold armlets and bangles, and a tilak on his forehead. He holds a black microphone in one hand and speaks, smiling. A gold lamp stand with a bird finial stands at right, and a brass vessel with a spoon rests on a cloth at lower left.
