A seated man in a rust-brown robe and layered gold necklaces and bangles speaks into a headset microphone, smiling, while gesturing with his right hand. He wears a white tilak with a red dot on his forehead, has long dark hair swept back and a full beard, and sits in a tall brown leather chair with carved wooden arms. In front of him stands a tall golden trident, and a black keyboard with a DTX label rests on a stand. Behind him hangs a large framed painting of a robed figure, and a blurred audience sits at tables in a bright hall.
