A standing man holds a silver trident with a red gem in his right hand while resting his left hand on his hip. He has long, dark, swept-back hair and wears an orange sleeveless top with a leopard-print cloth wrapped at the waist. Layers of rudraksha beads and tubular silver-toned metal beads cross his chest and hang from his waist, with matching rudraksha bracelets on his arms. A red-lit golden arched backdrop with ornate relief panels surrounds him, and a red dot marks his forehead. Swamiji (probable): the long swept-back hair, orange clothing, rudraksha malas and ceremonial trident are the visible cues, and he appears to be performing as a Shiva-like figure on stage.
