A seated speaker in an orange saffron robe with gold-edged borders wears a long rudraksha mala and has long, swept-back dark hair. He sits cross-legged on a white cushioned throne with orange-tasselled bolsters, hands raised and palms open as he speaks into a microphone on a stand. Behind him a red and white banner shows a black-and-white portrait of a figure with rudraksha beads and a Tamil name partly visible. A small flower arrangement in a pot, a water bottle and a rug sit on the stage, with a projection screen at right. Appearance cues fit the Swamiji candidate with ornate saffron clothing, rudraksha and long hair, though this is uncertain.
