A man seated on an ornate silver-white throne with carved floral patterns, speaking into a microphone on a stand at right, one hand raised in a gesture of address. He wears a rust-orange robe, a heavy gold necklace with red rose garlands and white jasmine strands, rudraksha bead bracelets on both upper arms, and a red tilak with white markings on his forehead. Behind him stands a large gold-toned deity murti with multiple arms and a trident-like weapon, flanked by gold ornate pillars and a deep red curtain, with green foliage and a green cloth at lower left.
