A standing man in white ceremonial robes with gold-yellow shawls holds a handheld microphone in one hand and a large ornate gold-and-silver mace over his shoulder in the other. He wears a golden crown and a silver-embossed necklace. Behind him is a large golden throne with a lion-figure carving, draped in red cushions and garlands of yellow and orange flowers. A framed portrait of a bare-chested figure with long hair and a rudraksha mala hangs above the throne. A large floral backdrop of yellow and maroon flower shapes fills the background. A seated man in white with a rudraksha mala sits at the left edge. The setting looks like a stage programme at a Gurupoornima celebration.
