A seated man in ochre-red robes sits on an ornate silver-and-red throne-style chair in a hall with pink walls and a colourful striped mat. He wears a crescent-shaped forehead mark, rudraksha-style beads and a gold necklace, holds a small ceremonial stick in one hand and an orange cloth draped over his arm. Beside him stands a silver trident staff, and a small table holds an electronic keyboard-style device. Around him, people in white clothes with orange sashes and rudraksha malas sit on the floor and chairs. A pedestal fan stands in the foreground and a bald devotee sits in front. Wall photo collages and a small sign appear in the background. The seated man has long hair, distinctive adornments and a throne, so he is a person candidate in person, though his face is not clearly confirmed. Eight or so people are visible.
