A woman in a white salwar-style outfit and a man in a white kurta stand on a stage holding handheld microphones. Behind them a large red backdrop shows a smiling man in an orange turban and orange shawl with a red tilak on his forehead, a portrait printed on the banner rather than a physical person. Ornate floral and butterfly line art decorates the red background. The woman smiles and gestures with one hand while the man speaks and gestures with his free hand.
