A seated figure in saffron and orange robes sits cross-legged on a carved wooden throne-chair on a stage, speaking into a microphone on a stand. He wears a thick orange-brown mala of beads with a gold pendant, a green beaded necklace, bangles on both wrists, and a leopard-print cloth beneath the saffron dhoti, with a tilak on the forehead and dark hair swept up. A silver staff with a tall ornate top stands at left beside a bottle of water, a red thermos and papers on a small wooden table, and a brass pot. Behind him hangs a golden-yellow backdrop painted with a dancing figure and a row of peacocks, with a swan motif at right. a person shown in the role of a seated speaker on the stage.
