A man stands barefoot on a stage in front of a large bright fire backdrop, holding a silver trident in one hand and a small round drum-like instrument in the other. He wears a patterned orange-red wrap, a saffron-toned dhoti-style garment, layered rudraksha malas, arm bands, and a patterned headwrap. Beside him is a leopard-print covered platform or seat. Smoke and flames fill the background behind a dark curtain. Appearance-based candidate: a person, shown here in a performance-style stage setting with trident and rudraksha malas as visible cues.
