A life-size wax figure of a long-haired man in an orange-red shawl stands before a smoky orange wall. He wears multiple rudraksha malas and gold armlets, with a red bindi on his forehead, and looks upward while smoke drifts across the frame. Behind him a blue-framed poster shows a smiling figure in orange headwear. The figure appears to be a statue rather than a living person, so no physical people are counted.
