A smiling man sits cross-legged on an ornate gold throne with a deep red velvet cushion, wearing a maroon turban with a fan-shaped pleated top, a red-maroon dhoti and wrap, heavy gold necklaces and gold armbands, and a red bindi. A small headset microphone is visible near his face. To his left stand brass oil lamps with rooster-shaped finials and a small open book on a red stand. Behind him a large painted backdrop shows a figure in orange draped cloth with red-and-white patterned trim. Person count: one seated speaker on a throne with ritual setting.
