A man seated cross-legged on a red velvet cushion before an ornate gold-leaf throne with carved lion-head armrests. He wears a rust-orange turban with a jewelled ornament, a rust-orange robe, a gold pendant, a long rudraksha mala, and a white and red flower garland. Bangles adorn his wrists, a red tilak marks his forehead, and a microphone stands before him as he speaks. A small framed portrait sits on a wooden stool beside him. a person: the figure matches the description cues of long swept hair, saffron clothing, rudraksha and ceremonial gold ornaments, seated in the place of honour as a speaker. Red drapery and a tiger-skin cushion complete the stage.
