A man seated on a flower-decorated throne with a gilded canopy speaks into a handheld microphone while gesturing with his raised right hand. He wears a cream and gold silk kurta and a gold-and-cream turban with a white feather, and a thick red and pink rose garland hangs from his shoulders. a person is shown from appearance cues: long swept-back hair, ornate turban and garland, and he is seated on the throne as the speaker. Behind him a carved deity murti is framed by strings of white jasmine, pink and yellow marigolds and roses, with a painted temple backdrop. To the left a man in white dhoti with an orange shawl kneels and holds a small instrument. Rose and marigold petals scatter the wooden stage floor.
