Photo of a smiling man seated on an ornate gold throne with a red tiger-striped cushion, wearing a maroon-red turban with a silver star-shaped ornament and a jeweled brooch, a white and red tilak on his forehead, a headset microphone, a red-and-gold silk shawl over a maroon garment, and multiple strands of beaded rudraksha-style malas with ceremonial necklaces. White ash markings appear on his arms and shoulders. Behind him stands a pinkish-orange deity murti with a golden lion-head armrest in the foreground.
