A seated man in a rust-red dhoti and shawl, wearing a leopard-print headwrap, white forehead markings and layered rudraksha malas, operates a wooden hand-press with a long wooden handle while a second man in red garments and rudraksha beads leans in from the left to steady it. A third person's hand is visible at the lower edge, and a microphone clip sits near the seated man's chin. Behind them are brass oil lamps, green lighting and a bright golden backdrop. Visible cues fit a person presence, the wrap, malas and ornate setting, but the face and pose are not clearly enough established, so presence is marked uncertain.

A photograph of a wooden hand-press apparatus being operated during a workshop setting. A man with a leopard-print headwrap and dark dreadlocked hair, wearing a rust-red robe and many rudraksha malas, sits on a white ornate chair, turning a wooden screw press while holding its handle. A second man in a rust-red cloth with a bare upper torso and rudraksha beads leans over to steady the frame. A third person in white with a striped marking on his arm works at the base near a dark stone mortar.
