3 Diwali 2025: 3 prompts to create festive AI portraits
Prompt 1: Create a realistic, 4K image, transforming the uploaded women in photos into a serene and focused expression. She is kneeling to light a diya within a detailed, circular rangoli. She wears a beautiful royal blue-colored lehenga with intricate silver embroidery. The setting is an outdoor balcony decorated with marigold garlands and fairy lights. The scene is illuminated by the soft, golden light of many diyas, emphasising a moment of tranquillity and devotion.
Prompt 2: Transform the woman in the image into a glamorous, designer-inspired portrait standing on a balcony decorated with rangoli and diyas. She is wearing a gold-embroidered outfit in the style of designer Manish Malhotra. She holds a lamp, with soft fireworks gently lighting up the sky in the background. The portrait should feature cinematic lighting and a luxurious, dreamy aesthetic.
Prompt 3: Transform the image into a vibrant, ultra-realistic portrait of the person in the uploaded image, holding a sparkling firecracker (phooljhadi) on a balcony overlooking a city skyline. The night sky is filled with fireworks, and the warm, festive glow from the sparkler lights up their joyful expression. The background features bokeh effects from distant city lights and fireworks.
