A barefoot man in a rust-red draped dhoti and matching red-brown shawl stands centrally on a stage, facing the camera with a slight turn. He has long dark hair swept back, a red tilak on his forehead, a small ornament on his head, a gold armlet and a gold necklace. Behind him a large backdrop projects a grid of glowing oil lamp flames in warm orange and red tones. Rows of brass oil lamps (deepams) line the front edge of the stage on both sides. Overhead, stage lighting trusses hold spotlights. The scene resembles a lamp-lit stage performance or satsang setting.
