A smiling man with long dark hair sits cross-legged on a gilded golden dais with ornate lotus-pattern carvings and red velvet cushions. He wears an orange saffron robe, a tulsi-style gold-bead necklace and a red bindi, and raises one hand in greeting while speaking into a microphone on a stand. Behind him hangs a light-blue backdrop with long strings of beads and small orange ornaments. A pair of wooden clappers rests on his lap, and a red-and-gold cushioned seat sits on each side.
