A man with long swept-back dark hair and a red bindi on his forehead walks barefoot across a red carpet in a stage hall. He wears a flowing saffron-orange robe with a draped shawl. Behind him, seated participants wear white blindfolds and a woman in a light blue dress wears an identity badge. A white draped backdrop displays a banner reading Nithyananda Galleria.
