A photograph of a man on a stage with purple and magenta lighting and flame-like backdrop shapes. He stands with his hand on his hip, smiling, wearing a leopard-print wrap with rudraksha malas across his chest and arms and a bell-trimmed waist belt. A long braid hangs over one shoulder and a pendant hangs at his neck. To the left stands a silver trident beside a small leopard-patterned drum, and behind him is an ornate gold arched panel. Appearance-based cues match the a person candidate, with rudraksha, a braid and distinctive ceremonial adornment, so the identification is probable.
