A man with long dark hair and a small red tilak on his forehead sits with eyes closed on a light blue plastic chair on a red-edged rooftop terrace. He wears an orange saffron shawl draped over his shoulders and orange dhoti with gold border, hands clasped in his lap, bare feet on a red and white tiled floor. Behind him a floodlight hangs from a pink pipe, a metal box is mounted on the wall, and the sea and coastal buildings are visible beyond. Appearance is consistent with a saffron-clad sannyasi, but identity is uncertain from appearance alone.
