The Viral Prompt (Google Gemini Prompt)

Create a photorealistic ultra-HD cinematic portrait of a fair Indian woman with an elegant, fit hourglass body, leaning gently against a clean white wall. She is wearing a rich red Banarasi silk saree with intricate gold motifs and a perfectly matching blouse. Her jewelry is traditional and heavy, including detailed gold jhumka earrings, a gold choker necklace, a long layered rani haar, and red bangles on her wrist.
Her hair is styled in loose, soft waves, with a small red bindi on her forehead. The pose is shy and graceful — her head slightly tilted downward, one hand resting softly near her neck, and a gentle, warm smile on her face.
Lighting is warm and flattering, creating a soft glow on her skin with sharp focus and beautiful depth. Shot in an 85mm cinematic portrait style with realistic skin texture, natural tones, high contrast, and professional color grading.
Ensure the face matches the uploaded reference image with 100% accuracy and no alterations. High quality, 8K resolution, realistic fabric texture, cinematic lighting, shallow depth of field.
Create the image in 9:16 aspect ratio.
Pose Variant 1 – Elegant Side Lean (Classic Shy Look)

Create a photorealistic ultra-HD cinematic portrait of a fair Indian woman with an elegant, fit hourglass body, leaning softly against a white wall. She stands in a relaxed side-lean pose, shoulder touching the wall, head gently tilted downward. One hand lightly holds the edge of her saree pallu near her collarbone, while the other rests naturally by her side. Her expression is shy and graceful with a soft smile. Warm cinematic lighting, 85mm portrait lens look, realistic skin texture, rich red Banarasi silk saree with gold motifs, heavy traditional gold jewelry. Ensure face matches the reference image 100% with no alteration. Create in 9:16 aspect ratio, 8K quality.
Pose Variant 2 – Over-the-Shoulder Glance

Create a photorealistic ultra-HD cinematic portrait of a fair Indian woman in a red Banarasi silk saree with gold motifs, standing near a white wall. Her body is angled slightly away from the camera while she looks back over her shoulder with a shy, gentle smile. One hand softly touches her neck, highlighting her gold choker and rani haar, while the other holds the saree pleats. Loose wavy hair frames her face with a small bindi visible. Warm lighting, shallow depth of field, 85mm cinematic style, realistic textures. Face must be 100% identical to the reference image. Create in 9:16 aspect ratio, 8K resolution.
