FACE MATCH IS THE TOP PRIORITY. This is the exact woman in the attached reference photo - not a lookalike. Copy the reference face feature by feature: hairline, hair volume and texture, forehead, brow shape, eye shape and spacing, nose bridge and tip, lips, jawline, cheek structure, skin tone - every proportion identical, so anyone who knows her recognises her instantly. Do not beautify, slim, age or genericise the face. From the reference keep only the face and hair; ignore its lighting, clothing, pose and background.

EFFECT: an ultra-wide 16mm frame from chest height - the courtyard's edges bowing gently at the frame's borders while she stands at the exact centre where the lens stays truthful, face undistorted. She stands at the pookalam's middle circle, arms opening wide, both palms up with fingers countable, wearing a cute traditional Onam saree in an elegant kasavu style. The flower rings wrap around her feet in wide perspective, the verandah curving at the edges. Chin level, an open smile, teeth natural, eyes bright with catchlights - real, never posed. Sky light keys her face brightest. True photograph, honest wide-lens geometry. Vertical 9:16. Only this one person. No text anywhere.

FINAL CHECK: compare against the attached reference - the identity must match exactly; if any feature differs, it is wrong.
