A bearded man in orange-saffron robes sits cross-legged on a tiger-skin seat beside a golden bull (Nandi) sculpture and a tall golden trident. He holds a handheld microphone and gestures with one hand while addressing a large seated audience. Many devotees in white and colourful clothing fill the foreground and middle rows, some with women in white head coverings. A pedestal fan, a camera on a tripod and a stage backdrop complete the hall. The man shows the saffron robe and bare upper body with distinctive long swept-back hair and beard, consistent with the Swamiji (probable) cues, so he is recorded as a candidate present in person. Several dozen people are visible in the scene.
