The uploaded photo is the master reference for this character. Preserve the exact facial features, face shape, skin tone, and identity from the uploaded image exactly. Vertical 9:13 composition. 9:13 vertical aspect ratio; transform the scene into a moody, high-contrast chiaroscuro frame inspired by classical Indian painting and film-noir cinema — place the subject against a textured backdrop like a carved wooden jharokha or aged stone wall with subtle fresco patina, introduce a single warm key light from a sharp side angle and a cool, faint rim light to create deep sculpted shadows and luminous highlights, add candlelight or brass diya fills and thin incense smoke for atmospheric haze, dress the subject in richly textured traditional costume such as a deep-maroon silk sari with gold zari or a heavily embroidered sherwani and layered brass jewelry/antique bangles, emphasize fabric folds, metallic gleam and tactile details with painterly brush-stroke grain and controlled film grain, use a limited palette of indigo, maroon and antique gold with lowered midtone saturation, strong shadow depth, selective dodge-and-burn to enhance contours, and a cinematic, dramatic, vintage-fine-art finish that feels intimate, evocative and timeless. Add a small, thin, professional 'prompthunt.in' text watermark at the top center of the image. The watermark should be subtle, use a color that matches the image's color palette, and appear lightweight and elegant — not distracting.
