He wears a rust-orange robe, a matching orange shawl, a long rudraksha mala draped over his shoulders, a gold ceremonial necklace, gold earrings, and beaded rudraksha armbands on both arms. Beside him on the left, a man in a white shirt sits with palms pressed together in greeting. Next to him, a man with a vibhuti mark on his forehead, bare-chested with a rudraksha mala and a white dhoti, holds a red fruit in his hands. Brass lamps stand in the background on a dark red carpet.
