A seated man in a maroon turban with a gold ornament and maroon robes sits cross-legged on an ornate gold throne with leopard-print cushions, flanked by gilded lion heads. He wears a long pink flower garland, a gold necklace, and rudraksha-style bands on his wrists, and has his palms pressed together before a microphone. Behind him a large gilded relief of a multi-armed deity with a cobra hood rises above the throne. A brass trident leans beside a small wooden stool holding an orange cup, on a red stage carpet.
