A man in saffron-orange robes sits on an ornate golden throne with a red velvet seat and a golden arched backrest, raising his right hand in a blessing gesture and smiling. He wears a rudraksha mala, a ceremonial gold necklace and beaded bracelets, with a white-and-red tilak on his forehead. Tall brass oil lamps flank the throne, with one lit lamp in the lower left and a lamp held by a person in white at the left edge. Bright yellow and pink decorative panels frame the stage. Appearance-based candidate: a person, seated in the central role on the throne, with saffron robes, rudraksha mala and gold necklace as cues.
