Three men sit cross-legged on an orange cloth-covered stage before a silver backdrop printed with a faint landscape. The central man in orange robes with a maroon-edged shawl and dark wavy hair speaks into a handheld microphone, hands pressed together. To his left, a man in a white kurta and an orange shawl with a rudraksha mala smiles and listens with his hands clasped. To his right, a bearded man in orange robes and wire-rimmed glasses with a long mala gestures while speaking. Cables run across the stage floor.
