Close-up photograph of a smiling man with long, dark, swept-back hair and a red bindi on his forehead. He wears a cream and gold ornate garment with a silver-embroidered border and holds a gold-and-white floral-wrapped ceremonial object in his raised hand. Behind him is a decorative backdrop of white and red floral garlands edged in purple and silver, with yellow marigold strands above and green foliage at the lower right.
