A photograph of a smiling man seated on an ornate gold throne, wearing a red-orange saffron-coloured dhoti and shawl, a long rudraksha mala with gold beads, a gold headband, gold armlets and a gold chain, and a red tilak on his forehead. He reaches into a gold bowl of white granules held by a man in orange clothing kneeling at his side. Behind them a large banner shows a smiling face in an orange turban and a Tamil word, with a red-digit date. The seated figure has distinctive long rudraksha malas and ceremonial gold jewellery, with a saffron shawl, on a throne, which is a compatible presentation of a person; the throne and appearance cues are the basis for the label.
