## Prompt

```text
Use the uploaded group photo as the face reference. Keep every person's face, features, skin tone, age and expression exactly as in the uploaded photo; same number of people, nobody added, removed or merged. The friends crowd onto a dorm bed and floor in a small room abroad: fairy lights on a pinboard, battery tea lights instead of real diyas, a laptop playing Diwali songs, a rangoli made from coloured rice on a paper plate and takeaway samosas, instant noodles and a box of mithai. Everyone in a mix of kurtas and hoodies, one in a saree with sneakers, cheering and holding paper plates. Light: 2700K fairy lights plus cool desk lamp. 24mm f/2.8, wide candid, slightly messy, honest phone-camera feel. Faces sharp. Photorealistic, real-camera look: visible skin texture and pores, natural catchlights, accurate hands, crisp textile detail, no airbrushing, no cartoon look, no logos or watermark. Aspect ratio 9:16.
