A seated man in saffron-orange robes sits on an ornate gold throne with red cushions beneath a decorated canopy on a stage, wearing a rudraksha-style necklace with a gold pendant and a red and gold headpiece. Two large gold-carved pillars flank the throne against deep red drapes. In front, a large audience of women and girls in orange and white clothing sits on the floor facing the stage, with video cameras on tripods at the sides. A visible identity cue is a rudraksha mala and gold necklace on a presenter in a headpiece, but the face is not identifiable from this image.
