A photograph of a ceremonial event on an orange-carpeted stage. A seated figure on an ornate gold throne with red cushions wears an orange robe, long dark hair swept back, and a rudraksha mala; he extends his hands to a young man in white kurta clothing who is bowing and receiving something. Behind them, a woman in a white and green sari holds an offering, a man in white stands nearby, and a woman in a yellow sari is at the left edge. A garland of yellow and orange flowers hangs over a second gold chair. A large orange banner behind the stage shows a smiling man in an orange turban and text in Kannada script. Several people are visible in the background.
