a person seated on an ornate gold throne with carved gold backrest and red velvet cushion, raising one hand in a blessing gesture. He wears an orange-saffron dhoti and shawl, a long rudraksha-style gold bead mala with gold necklace, a red bindi and white vibhuti tripundra on the forehead, and a small hoop earring. Multiple long garlands of pink and red flowers with white and yellow blooms hang over his shoulders and chest. A leopard-print cloth covers the dais beneath him. He smiles while speaking, wearing a small headset microphone at his ear, with a wristwatch visible on his raised arm.
