A standing man in a lime-green dhoti-style garment with a red and green border and a red shawl over one shoulder stands barefoot on a glossy white stage in front of a golden ornate arch-shaped throne. He wears a cream turban with a gold ornament, multiple rudraksha beaded malas and a gold armband, and holds his right hand raised in a blessing gesture while smiling. Behind him, a seated deity murti in a teal and gold garment wears a crown and heavy necklaces and is garlanded with red, white and purple flower strands. Maroon velvet curtains hang behind the stage and a small framed screen and a red-cushioned footstool are visible at the edges. Appearance-based cues are a distinctive turban, multiple malas and ornate golden adornments, so this is a person candidate present in person.
