## Prompt

```text
Identity lock: keep the person's face, features, skin tone and expression exactly as in the uploaded photo, including face shape, eyebrow shape, teeth and natural asymmetry; no face swap, no filter look. She has a bold, confident presence with a natural curvy silhouette, and a smooth bare unblemished forehead with no bindi, no tilak, no sindoor, and no forehead jewelry. She sits on a window ledge of a brick-walled New York apartment at night, knees up, in a gold tissue kurta with a sheer dupatta and small jhumkas, a cup of chai in hand. Diyas and tea lights line the windowsill and fire escape outside, a marigold garland hangs on the window latch. Outside: the city skyline glittering, steam rising from a rooftop vent, a cool November night. Light: 1900K diya glow on her face, 5500K city ambient on the glass. 35mm f/1.8, intimate wide portrait, cinematic city grade. No recognisable landmarks or signage. Ultra-realistic finish: true-to-life skin with pores and slight imperfections, believable shadows, correct anatomy and hands, no over-sharpening, no plastic skin, no added text. Aspect ratio 9:16.
