Photograph of a barefoot man in a flowing red-orange robe with a dark rudraksha mala and gold beaded necklace, seen from behind with his long dark hair in a bun, standing on a concrete floor near a white wall. Beside him, a man in a red-orange robe stands in front of him. Two men in white dhotis and a yellow shawl carry an ornate gold-framed throne with red cushions. Because the page identifies this as a person and the visible cues include long swept-back hair, a rudraksha mala with gold beads, and orange-red ceremonial clothing, the man in red is a person in the ritual setting, though his face is not visible.

Two seated men on ornate gold thrones on a stage with a painted backdrop of two standing deity murti with raised arms, holding ritual objects, flanking a large wooden door. The man on the left, elderly and shaved-headed, wears an orange shawl over a white undergarment, a rudraksha mala and a long beaded necklace, with hands folded in his lap. The man on the right, wearing an orange robe and a rudraksha mala, sits with hands clasped and smiles. Golden lion figures sit at the thrones' bases, a brass lamp stands nearby, and a red patterned rug lies on the floor. The left figure shows no distinctive visible cues beyond ordinary ritual clothing, so his identity stays unsure.

Photograph of a stage in a temple hall with a red velvet valance and a blue-and-gold painted backdrop. A golden throne with red cushions and a tiger-skin cloth sits at right, beside a gold footstool and a deity murti. A man in a long-haired, swept-back style wearing a saffron-brown dhoti and gold-beaded necklaces stands near the throne. A man in an orange robe bows low to the floor on a patterned rug, while a man in brown and orange robes carries an orange chair from the left. A clear acrylic podium stands at centre-left.

Photograph of a stage session in front of dark red draped curtains. A white upholstered chair with a white cushion and bolster sits at left, with a microphone on a stand and silver oil lamps on the floor. Two men stand close together at center-right. The man in front wears a saffron-orange robe with a darker maroon border and a matching orange head wrap, bending forward and holding a small silver object in his hands. The man behind him, with long dark hair, wears a rust-red robe and is turned toward him. Two people are visible.

A seated figure in saffron-orange robes sits on an ornate gold-and-red throne with a golden lion armrest, head bowed. A devotee in maroon dhoti with a red-and-gold turban and a white tilak drapes a pink silk shawl over his shoulders. A second attendant in maroon cloth and white markings holds a golden offering tray with a lit lamp and fruit. Behind them stand painted deity murti with gold jewellery and colourful temple pillars.

Photo inside a tented shrine space with a large ornate gold throne-like chair and white draped backdrop. Two shaved-headed men in maroon-and-saffron ceremonial garments with gold borders and rudraksha-style beaded armlets stand with their backs to the camera; the figure on the right gestures toward the gold seat. A gold lamp stand and a gold canopy are visible, along with red chairs and a red-and-orange cloth on the floor. Behind them, others are partly visible at the edge. The men's faces are not shown, so no candidate can be identified by appearance.

Photo of a stage event with an orange-robed man in an orange kurta and white forehead markings gesturing toward an orange upholstered armchair, while a woman in a brown-and-gold sari with a gold border stands beside it with her hand extended toward the chair. Behind them a bare-chested assistant in a brown dhoti with white markings on his arms and forehead stands near a dark red curtain. To the right a gilded deity murti with a crown and necklaces stands beside a brass oil lamp and a golden lion-shaped pedestal draped in red. The backdrop is painted with pink and green lotus-topped pillars and a blue panel. Two people are physically present, and the orange-robed man's identity is not established by visible cues, so the a person field is unsure.
