A seated man in saffron-orange robes and a heavy gold necklace sits on a brown leather throne-style chair at the centre of a hall with a cream marble floor. Beside him a woman in rust-coloured sari with a rudraksha mala and a standing woman in a rust sari attend to him. Around them, boys and young people in white kurtas and white shirts stand watching, while a small boy in a red sweater kneels at the chair's side, and a girl in a purple top crouches on the floor. A small table draped in orange cloth holds a Yamaha keyboard and a microphone sits on the floor. A framed picture on the wall behind carries text, and a Tamil satsang setting is evident. The man's ornate dress and seated position make him a possible a person candidate, with the presence of ritual attendants and devotees around him.
