A seated man in saffron-orange robes and an orange turban sits cross-legged on an ornate gold throne with a gold canopy, smiling and gesturing with open hands toward a microphone on a stand. A silver trident rests beside the throne, flanked by potted green plants and tall brass lamps with bird finials. Behind him a large backdrop shows a painted Shiva figure with a rudraksha mala and crescent in his hair, seated in meditation, beside a blue-toned riverside temple city with boats. Only one physical person is present. The backdrop shows a deity image rather than a second person.
