A seated man in a rust-orange turban and orange robe, wearing a pink flower garland, gold necklaces and gold armlets, gestures with raised hand while speaking into a microphone on a stand. He sits on an ornate silver throne with red cushions. Behind him, a second figure sits on a larger gold throne under a silver umbrella, also in orange with a turban, garlands and a gold necklace, one hand raised in blessing; this is a statue or depiction, not a physical person. Nearby on the floor are a silver trident, a brass lamp, and small decorated deity murti. The backdrop shows a painted mountain with temple towers, and the floor is covered with colourful woven mats. The scene suggests a discourse setting.
