Photograph of a seated figure on a red-cushioned gilded throne shaking hands with a standing man in a beige kurta, cream Nehru-style cap and orange shawl. The seated figure wears an orange-brown turban and draped saffron-brown robe, with a white and red flower garland, rudraksha-style beads and long dreadlocked hair. A golden trident stands before the throne, a microphone on a stand is nearby, and a man in white kneels and bows with an orange cloth over his shoulders. Behind them, a red backdrop, two women in white and cream saris stand with palms together, and a few people watch from the right. The seated figure's appearance is a probable match for a person in the presence of a greeting, so the candidate is labelled probable in this description.
