IDENTITY — HIGHEST PRIORITY:
Preserve the exact facial identity of the person in the reference image. Keep the same face shape, jawline, cheekbones, eyebrows, eyes, nose, lips, ears, skin tone, natural facial proportions and recognizable features. Do not alter, replace, beautify, feminize, age or reshape the face. Preserve realistic skin pores and natural facial texture.
POSE & COMPOSITION:
Keep the same seated pose and overall composition as the reference. The man is sitting confidently in a relaxed position, looking toward the right side, with both hands naturally positioned around his lap. Maintain the same body proportions and camera perspective.
1980s OUTFIT:
Dress him in authentic early-to-mid 1980s Indian Bollywood fashion:
- cream/off-white textured wide-lapel blazer
- dark charcoal/black shirt underneath with an exaggerated 1980s wide collar, slightly open at the chest
- high-waisted pleated cream trousers
- vintage brown leather belt
- simple metal pendant necklace
- classic vintage aviator sunglasses
- simple vintage analog wristwatch

Add a faded old Hindi cinema poster on the wall. Absolutely no modern buildings, vehicles, smartphones, LED signs or contemporary objects.

Warm late-afternoon golden sunlight entering from the side, creating strong cinematic light and shadow patterns across
