A man in a rust-red robe and matching red-brown dhoti-style garment sits cross-legged on an ornate gold throne with a deep red cushion. He wears a pink and white flower garland around his neck, a red bindi on his forehead, and long dark hair, and his hands rest on his knees while he faces forward toward a microphone on a stand. Flanking the throne are gold-finished carved figures with raised arms, and above him rises an elaborate gold arched backdrop with a cobra-hood motif. A small brass oil lamp and a gold stand with offerings sit in the foreground. Appearance-based candidate, long hair and red robe with floral garland, but identity uncertain.
