A photograph taken outdoors at night in front of dense green foliage. A man with long dreadlocked hair, a white crescent ornament on top of his head and a vertical tilak on his forehead sits cross-legged on a silver ornate chair draped with a striped leopard-print cloth. He wears a rust-red sleeveless top, rudraksha malas across his chest and upper arms, a leopard-print waist belt and a gold chain. A microphone stands beside him. To his right, a small gold figure of a standing deity murti holds a lamp, and a silver tray with garlands and flowers sits nearby. Before him is a brass vessel containing yellow powder and a metal pestle-like tool.
