A man with shoulder-length dark hair and a white tilak with red bindi sits cross-legged on an ornate golden throne with carved arch backing, flanked by two gilded lion sculptures. He wears a rust-orange robe, a saffron-orange shawl, a multi-strand rudraksha-style bead mala and a gold chain, and gold bangles, with a small wireless microphone at his ear. His hands rest on the armrests of maroon-upholstered seats, and he is barefoot on a tiger-striped rug. Behind him are colourful painted pillars in green, blue and pink, and a dark backdrop with hanging lights. The man is an appearance-based probable Swamiji candidate: long swept-back hair, saffron-orange robe and shawl, and rudraksha beads, seated on a throne.
