On the left, an elderly man with white hair and a white beard wears a white dhoti and an orange-yellow shawl and speaks into a microphone. On the right, a man wears a dark red-brown robe, a tall ornate red and gold crown, a gold necklace, and bangles, and gestures with one hand over a small white table holding a tray. A gold-and-white mic stand stands nearby. In the foreground, the backs of many seated devotees in white dhotis and orange shawls fill the lower frame, with some bald and some grey-haired heads visible.
