A blurred photo of a smiling young man in an orange saffron robe with gold embroidered trim, a red tilak on his forehead, and dark hair pulled back. He gestures with one raised hand, and holds a silver plate near the bottom edge. Behind him, a flower-strewn altar holds coconuts, green leaves and yellow and purple blossoms. At top left, a seated person in white clothes and a yellow-gold shawl sits behind a white railing. The figure in orange does not show clear a person cues such as long swept-back hair, a crown, or rudraksha malas, so identity is uncertain and he is described by role only.
