A photograph inside a large tent with orange-red canvas ceiling and hanging lights. A long-haired figure in a brown and orange garment with a red-and-gold garland and a green parrot perched on the shoulder sits on a golden-edged seat, extending a hand toward a line of devotees. A man in a white shirt holds out a small red object toward the seated figure, and a child in a pink top stands beside him. On the right, a bare-chested man in white dhoti with a rudraksha mala and gold trim stands watching. Behind, a crowd in white ritual clothes sits on the floor, and a camera crane is visible. The seated figure matches a person in appearance, with long swept-back hair, ornate garland and shawl cues, though the identification is uncertain.
