A photograph in a bright white hall with a red carpet and green mat. In the centre, a long-haired man in an orange-red robe stands barefoot with palms pressed together in anjali, eyes lowered. To the left, men in white kurta and dhoti stand with hands folded in namaste, one with a vermilion mark on his forehead. Black speakers labelled with Tamil text stand at right, and a barred window is behind. The presence of a person cannot be confirmed from appearance alone, so the identity is left uncertain.
