A man seated in a white ornate throne-style chair, pressing his palms together in anjali namaskar with a smile. He wears a tall black matted turban-style headpiece with a silver crescent ornament, white and red tilak marks on his forehead, and a thick garland of white-and-pink flowers. Multiple rudraksha malas hang across his bare chest and arms, with a red-brown cloth draped over his shoulder. Behind him stands a yellow and orange marigold garland and a grey stone backdrop. Swamiji (probable): long matted hair in a crown-like turban, rudraksha malas and garlands and a ceremonial seat, so the figure may be the Paramashivam depicted in this event coverage.
