A seated man in saffron-orange robes sits on an ornate silver-and-red throne in a hall, holding a handheld microphone to his face with one hand and smiling while resting his other hand on his cheek. A white electric fan stands in front of the throne. Behind and around him, a large audience sits on the floor in rows, many in black, white and red tops, with a few women in saris and a man in a white dhoti with a yellow border in the lower foreground. Stacked colourful cloth and bedding fill the background against red and white draped curtains. The person on the throne has long dark hair and a beard, with saffron robes and a mic, consistent with the a person candidate, but the appearance is not conclusive enough to confirm identity.
