Photograph of a stage in front of deep red velvet curtains. A figure seen from behind wears an orange turban, a long orange shawl draped over one shoulder, bare upper back and an orange dhoti, with long dark hair falling down the back, and stands beside a table covered in a striped blue, red and green cloth. At the left edge, a second person in orange robes is partly visible. The figure's bare back, long hair and orange turban match distinctive appearance cues, so this is a person seen from behind, standing in a stage setting.

He wears an orange turban and an orange shawl draped over his shoulder, with long dreadlocked black hair falling down his back and beaded bracelets on his upper arms. A silver lamp stands on the left of the table, and a second person with a forehead marking peeks up from below the table edge on the left. The figure is seen from behind, so his face is not visible.2017-08-15Two people stand in front of a deep pink draped curtain, both with palms pressed together in anjali mudra. Both wear orange-saffron wraps and dhoti-style cloth with golden edging, rudraksha and bead malas, and orange turbans. Their bare upper bodies show white body markings. The left figure wears a wide white-and-orange headband; the right figure wears a white-edged necklace.
