A man with swept-back black hair and yellow-and-red tilak on his forehead sits cross-legged on an ornate carved wooden throne on a stage, speaking into a microphone and raising one fist. He wears saffron-orange robes with a leopard-print cloth, layers of rudraksha mala garlands, a green bead necklace, gold armbands and bangles. Behind him hangs a large carved dancing Shiva Nataraja figure against a cream curtain, with peacock motifs at the side. A silver trident stands beside a glazed pot, next to a water bottle and a red flask on a small carved table. Appearance-based candidate; the page does not name him for this event.
