Prompt 1:
"Create a portrait of a young South Asian woman with the exact face from the given image. She has long, dark hair adorned with a gajra, wearing a traditional white and gold saree with a golden full-sleeve blouse. She's accessorized with intricate gold jewelry, including a statement necklace, jhumka earrings, and bangles. The woman is outdoors, leaning against a tree with lush green foliage framing her face. She's looking slightly towards the viewer with a gentle smile. In the background, there is the southern white Balaji Mandir."
Prompt2:
"Create a hyper-realistic portrait of a young South Asian woman with the exact same face from the uploaded image. She has long, dark hair adorned with a jasmine gajra. She is draped in a white and gold traditional Kanchipuram saree with a golden full-sleeve blouse, accessorized with intricate gold jewelry: heavy jhumkas, a temple-style necklace, and stacked bangles. She stands gracefully in a sunlit temple courtyard, leaning slightly against a carved stone pillar. In the background, the towering white Balaji Mandir gopuram rises majestically, framed by soft golden-hour light. The atmosphere is divine, warm, and cinematic, with sharp details on the jewelry and fabric textures."
Prompt3:
"Create a cinematic portrait of a young South Asian woman with the same face from the uploaded image. She has long flowing dark hair tied with a jasmine gajra. She wears a traditional white and gold saree with a richly embroidered golden blouse, accessorized with layered temple jewelry. She is standing near a calm riverside ghats, with steps descending into the water. In the background, the Balaji Mandir is reflected in the river, with glowing diyas floating in the water. She is gazing slightly towards the viewer with a soft, divine smile. The mood is serene, spiritual, and timeless, with warm reflections on the water and natural textures captured in 8K detail."
Prompt4:
"Create a realistic portrait of a young South Asian woman with the exact same face from the uploaded image. She is wearing a white and gold saree with a golden full-sleeve blouse, a long gajra tied in her braid, and detailed temple jewelry. She is standing in the veranda of a traditional South Indian house, leaning against a wooden doorway decorated with mango leaves. In the distance, the white Balaji Mandir dome glows faintly under soft daylight. The mood is homely, elegant, and divine, with warm tones, cinematic composition, and subtle lens flares enhancing her golden accessories."
Prompt5:
"Create a vibrant cinematic portrait of a South Asian woman with the same preserved face from the uploaded image. She is wearing a white and gold saree with a shimmering golden blouse, adorned with heavy gold temple jewelry. Her long hair is decorated with jasmine gajra, cascading over her shoulder. She is captured mid-movement, gently holding a brass plate filled with flowers. Behind her, the Balaji Mandir is beautifully lit for a festival night, with glowing diyas, marigold garlands, and festive lamps. The colors are vivid, with golden highlights and deep cinematic shadows, creating a divine, celebratory atmosphere."
Prompt6:
"Create a dreamy portrait of a young South Asian woman with the same face from the uploaded image. She is dressed in a white and gold saree, a golden blouse, and temple jewelry. A long jasmine gajra trails through her braid. She is standing along a garden path filled with flowering shrubs and stone steps, with the Balaji Mandir visible in the background, partially blurred by depth of field. She looks slightly towards the viewer with a graceful smile, as sunlight filters through the trees, casting dappled shadows. The mood is soft, natural, and spiritual, with an aesthetic balance between nature and heritage."
