A photograph taken in a covered wooden colonnade of a traditional Kerala-style building, with a tiled roof, carved wooden ceiling beams and tall stone-grey pillars along a polished dark floor. A woman in a white salwar kameez with a white handbag extends her arm to point along the pillars toward the garden. Beside her stands a figure in a saffron-orange robe with long dark hair, looking toward her, appearing to be a sannyasi and possibly the appearance-based candidate, but the appearance is uncertain. Two men in white garments with orange shawls stand behind them. A white wall with a carved fan-shaped window and greenery of a lawn are visible.
