A photograph of a man seated on a flower-decorated throne canopy on a stage, speaking into a handheld microphone with one hand raised. He wears a gold-brown silk kurta and an orange-gold turban with a white feather, a red garland of roses and marigolds draped over his shoulders, and red-and-gold trim on the cushioned seat. Behind him is a small deity murti in a niche within a canopy of white jasmine, yellow and pink garlands, with a painted temple backdrop. A seated man in white with an orange shawl sits at the lower left, and petals scatter across the floor. The man on the throne has distinctive long hair and ornate gold-and-red garb, a compatible presentation, though the appearance is not conclusive enough for confident identification.
