Before him, a bald priest in orange robes holds a tall brass lamp with multiple tiers, lit with flames, and offers it toward him. Seated devotees in white and colourful saris fill the foreground. Behind the stage, a large banner shows a smiling man in an orange turban with a red bindi, beside Tamil text and a lit oil lamp against a hill backdrop.
