He wears a leopard-print sleeveless top, maroon dhoti-style wrap trousers, and a sash, and holds a silver trident-like staff. Behind him, a large projected portrait shows a bearded figure in a red-orange turban and saffron robe beside a red and white throne draped with white flowers. A pale spotlight sits at lower left.
