Photograph at an evening Hindu religious gathering on a stage with a painted backdrop. A man with long dark hair and an orange turban, wearing orange robes, stands with palms pressed together in greeting toward a bearded elderly sadhu seated in a gold-patterned armchair. The elderly man has a white beard, an orange turban, a red shawl with gold border and a garland, and holds an open booklet. Behind them, another bearded man in orange robes sits in a matching chair holding a white bag, and several saffron-robed men stand nearby, one holding a printed booklet. A figure in a red and gold costume holds a staff at right, and a young boy in white cloth speaks on a phone. The orange-clad figure with long hair and turban shows the cues associated with the probable identity, but the appearance is not clear enough to confirm it.
