Scene: a small roadside stall in Old Delhi at night, a vendor cooking sizzling aloo tikki on a large iron tawa or kadhai, thick steam rising into the light. Moment: the vendor's hands mid-action, a couple of customers softly blurred in the background, wet road reflecting lights. Light: bare tungsten bulbs above the stall, warm glow on the food and steam, cool blue street light behind. Camera: 35mm, f/1.8, low angle across the counter, food and steam sharp, background bokeh. Style: cinematic street documentary, film grain, rich warm-cool contrast. Format: horizontal 3:2. Avoid: readable shop signs or brand names, extra fingers, distorted faces, unhygienic details, text, watermarks.
