A seated man in saffron-orange robes with a long rudraksha mala around his neck sits on an ornate gold throne with red cushions, smiling and raising one hand in greeting. Before him, an elderly white-haired man in a white kurta and tan shawl leans forward with palms pressed together, carrying a walking stick. A cameraman with a video camera stands at the left edge, and a figure in yellow clothing is partly visible at the right. The throne has carved gold floral and animal motifs, and red and gold decorations fill the background of what appears to be a temple or hall setting. The seated figure is an appearance-based probable Swamiji (probable) with saffron robes, long swept-back hair and a rudraksha mala, seated in a role of receiving a devotee.
