A seated man in orange and saffron robes with a dark rudraksha mala and long hair in a top knot sits on an orange cushion, reading a sheet of paper held in his hands. Beside him stands a man in a white shirt with a red-maroon cloth around his neck and a rudraksha mala, looking down toward the paper. A blue bird logo appears in the upper left corner and a pale wall and draped curtain form the background. The orange-robed figure has distinctive long hair, saffron clothing and rudraksha beads, so he is a person candidate, though the appearance is not fully certain.
