A man stands on a red carpeted stage in front of an ornate golden throne with a red velvet seat and an embroidered red parasol overhead. He wears a red turban with a tilak mark, layered rudraksha malas, a large gold pendant necklace, red bangles and a leopard-print lower garment over red dhoti-style cloth with gold borders. He raises his right hand in a blessing gesture and holds a silver trishul in his left. Appearance-based candidate, unconfirmed by name: a person in a ceremonial stage presentation; the figure stands beside the throne rather than seated on it.
