The complete prompt
Create an ultra-realistic cinematic portrait inspired by a classic Indian comedy-film character, with a humorous, slightly exaggerated camera perspective.
A middle-aged South Asian man stands very close to the camera, leaning slightly forward while holding an old-fashioned mobile phone against his ear. He wears a simple white ribbed sleeveless vest, dark oversized aviator sunglasses, and has neatly combed black hair with a thick black moustache. His expression is serious yet subtly comic, as though he is intensely concentrating on an unusual phone conversation.
Use an extreme close-up, slightly wide-angle perspective, making the face and sunglasses appear prominent while retaining realistic facial anatomy. His hand naturally grips the phone beside his cheek.
The background is a soft pale blue-gray studio-like environment with subtle haze and smooth tonal gradients. Use cool diffused lighting with a small realistic reflection/glint on the sunglasses.
Photography: ultra-photorealistic, cinematic Indian film still, full-frame camera, 35–50mm lens, shallow depth of field, realistic skin pores and fine facial hair, natural wrinkles and texture, authentic fabric detail, realistic hands and phone, subtle cinematic contrast, soft highlights, professional color grading.
Composition: vertical 4:5, tight chest-up framing, subject leaning toward the camera, direct frontal perspective, humorous visual intensity, clean background.
Important: keep the appearance natural and believable; do not beautify or excessively smooth the face. Avoid CGI/plastic skin, distorted hands, warped sunglasses, unnatural anatomy, excessive HDR, oversharpening, text, logos, captions, watermarks, or picture-in-picture elements.Copy the complete prompt and use your own reference photos where requested.
