Test settings

Exact default prompt text from this page, including its lehenga-choli line, was submitted as the only edit instruction on 9 Oct 2026 in Grok Imagine. Synthetic adult-woman portrait used as the sole image input (/media/navratri-night-07-kalaratri-reference-20261009.webp). The prompt asks for a deep-indigo lehenga choli, not a kurta. Night 4 is an adult woman, not a man. First result of this run kept. The generator has no 4:5 preset, so the saved still is 2:3. No seed was exposed. Converted to WebP under 200 KB with no creative retouch. ChatGPT and Gemini were not used.

Variability

Another uploaded photo can change the face, hands, skirt flare and crop. This is one synthetic-source result. It does not depict a goddess, and a kurta in the source photo is meant to be replaced by the lehenga named in the prompt.

Edit the uploaded photo using it as the sole identity reference. Keep the same visible people, recognisable faces, ages, natural skin tones, hair, body proportions and people count as closely as the model allows; compare with the source.

Create a Navratri Night 7 portrait inspired by the Kalaratri night-sky theme, without depicting or impersonating a goddess. Place the person at a community garba ground after dusk, calm and confident, with safe warm lamps and a few softly coloured festival lights. Use indigo surroundings but keep the face, clothing and hands well lit and easy to see.

Replace the outfit with a deep-indigo lehenga choli only: a choli, a flared indigo lehenga with a copper border, and an indigo dupatta. Do not use a kurta. Keep the face well lit. Natural editorial photography, realistic skin and fabric, adult guests softly blurred in the background. Frame from the head to below the knee so the choli and the lehenga skirt are both visible. Vertical 4:5.

Avoid horror imagery, supernatural effects, deity depiction, weapons, added foreground people, altered identity, extra fingers or limbs, text, logos and watermarks.
