A smiling man with long dreadlocks and a patterned leopard-print headband sits on an ornate silver throne with a carved golden lion-headed backrest. He wears a maroon-red sleeveless wrap, a heavy gold multi-strand necklace with a large gold pendant, red bangles and a red-brown forehead mark, and speaks into a microphone on a stand. Right foreground shows a silver vessel with pink and yellow flower garlands and an oil lamp, with a dark night background and stage lights. Appearance cues include long dreadlocked hair, ornate gold jewellery and a crown-like headband, so he is a probable Swamiji in an in-person satsang setting.
