A man stands barefoot on a stage lit with colourful projected backdrops, one arm raised high and the other holding a large silver trident topped with a small damaru drum, its leopard-print cloth streaming down the shaft. He wears a rust-orange draped dhoti, a leopard-print sleeveless top and sash, rudraksha bracelets, a gold necklace and an ornate headpiece, with a red tilak on his forehead. Rows of brass oil lamps stand along the stage floor. The appearance-based candidate for a person is shown in performance on stage with the trident and damaru, and the printed page caption supports the event context.
