A bearded man in a rust-orange dhoti and shawl sits smiling broadly on an ornate silver-and-red throne with a sun-face motif, wearing a long rudraksha mala with heavy gold ceremonial necklaces and a gold pendant, with a red bindi and white forehead markings. He is bare-chested and his long dark hair falls past his shoulders, giving compatible presentation cues. To his right, an older man in a red-brown kurta with a rudraksha mala sits on a gold-framed chair beside a white fan. Behind them are garlands of red, yellow and white flowers, a purple backdrop and drapes, and silver ritual vessels and a water bottle sit on the stage in the foreground.
