He wears a leopard-print garment with a dark rudraksha mala draped across the chest and shoulders, interspersed with small golden bells, and rudraksha bracelets on his wrists and upper arm. A dark pendant hangs at his neck. He holds a long silver staff with a pink tassel near its top in his right hand. A gilded, ornately carved golden throne or seat is visible at the left edge.

Photo of a single performer standing on a stage before a deep red velvet curtain, with a warm orange and yellow backdrop glow at left and an ornate gold throne edge visible at lower left. He has long, wavy dark hair and wears a leopard-print garment with a sleeveless top and wrapped lower cloth. Rudraksha bead garlands in dark brown cross his chest and wrap his waist and upper arms, with brass bells strung along them. A dark pendant hangs on his neck.
