A smiling man seated on a leopard-print cushioned chair with a rust-red turban decorated with a gold and jewelled brooch, a rust-red robe, layered rudraksha-style brown beads and long gold beaded necklaces, and a beaded orange armlet. Appearance-based candidate: a person, with long hair under the turban and multiple distinctive ceremonial cues, seated in front of a microphone. Behind him, a gold-ornamented throne backdrop and a painted sage figure with white hair and beard in namaste; a golden lion-head ornament sits beside the microphone.
