His hair hits just below his earlobe. The figure on the right sits with his right left knee bent, his left hand resting on top of it. His right hand is raised, suggesting he is conversing. He wears gold bracelets, a thick gold necklace, an earring, and a red turban. He has a long sword (talwar) resting on his lap. He has a long beard and his hair hits just below his earlobe.
