Two saffron-clad men sit on an ornate golden throne backed by a gold-leaf arch, flanked by gilded lion statues, at what appears to be a press briefing. The man on the right wears an orange dhoti and wrap, a long gold necklace of beads, a rudraksha-style bead armband, and a red-and-gold headband, smiling as he looks toward the left. The older man on the left has a shaved head with white markings, rudraksha mala beads, a gold pendant, and a saffron wrap, and is gesturing with one hand. A dense cluster of microphones with television station logos (including Puthiya Thalaimurai, Sun, Captain, Polimer, Moon TV, Tamilmurasu-style channel bugs, MegaTV, WIN TV and Imayam) is in front of them. Framed pictures and a golden sculpture sit on a side table. Swamiji (probable) is the man on the right, identified by his long hair pulled up, a crown-style headband, gold necklace and saffron clothing; this is an appearance-based label only.
