He wears an orange saffron wrap, a thick multi-strand gold-beaded necklace and gold armlets. In front, a few people reach toward him with raised hands, and a cameraman in white films from the left. Behind is a large backdrop of a turbaned figure in orange with a red bindi. Swamiji (probable) is seated on the throne, identified by the long hair, saffron clothing and gold adornments.
