A man with long dark hair and a leopard-print turban topped by a white crescent ornament sits on a silver-backed chair, gesturing with his right hand while speaking into a microphone on a stand. He wears a rust-red robe, a dense rudraksha mala and a gold chain, with rudraksha bracelets on his arms. Beside him stands an ornate silver throne decorated with white jasmine garlands, and a small brass figure of a deity murti stands on the lower left. In front are brass vessels, a silver sword-like ritual implement, turmeric and kumkum powders in bowls, and a white conch-like vessel, all. The red curtain behind completes the stage.
