Use the attached image as the primary facial reference. Maintain very high similarity in facial structure, beard style, hairstyle, jawline, skin tone, and intense expression. Keep natural proportions and realistic skin texture. Do not significantly alter identity.

Create an ultra-realistic cinematic close-up portrait of a rugged Indian man with an intense, dangerous, battle-hardened expression, staring directly into the camera. The frame is vertical 9:16 and tightly cropped from upper chest to top of head, with the face dominating the composition. His head is straight, shoulders squared, body facing forward, and eyes locked intensely at the viewer.
He has a strong masculine face with sharp cheekbones, a defined jawline, thick eyebrows, deep-set piercing eyes, and short thick dark hair styled upward in a textured messy crop. His skin is sweaty, dirty, and battle-worn, with realistic grime, dust, and blood splatter across the forehead, cheeks, nose, and near the lips. Add visible cuts, abrasions, and fresh scratch marks on the face, especially one prominent bloody slash across the cheek. Skin should have realistic pores, dampness, and cinematic texture.
Expression must be cold, fierce, intimidating, and emotionally controlled, with slightly narrowed glowing-looking intense eyes and a hard closed-mouth stare. No smile. No softness. Pure aggressive focus.
He is wearing an olive green polo shirt with broad dark horizontal stripes. The collar is open and slightly loose, with one visible button near the chest. Around his neck is a thin black cord necklace with a small simple central bead/pendant detail. Keep the shirt rugged, casual, slightly worn, and realistic exactly in this style.
Pose and framing:

Front-facing portrait, chest-up close shot, symmetrical composition, centered face, shoulders visible, no dramatic body tilt, no hand visible in frame. Keep the pose still, direct, and confrontational.
Camera angle:

Eye-level close-up shot, straight-on angle, tight framing, cinematic portrait composition. The shot should feel intimate and intense, like a dramatic movie still.
Lighting:

Strong warm orange fire-like light coming from one side/front, casting a glowing dramatic tone across the face and neck. Keep the lighting low-key, moody, and high contrast, with deep shadows on one side of the face and warm highlights on the forehead, cheekbones, nose, and lips. The light should feel like flames, sunset firelight, or burning ambient glow. Maintain a dark cinematic atmosphere.
Background:

Very blurred dark background with warm orange tones on one side and deep shadowy neutral tones on the other. Minimal details, soft focus, moody indoor or industrial atmosphere. Background should not distract from the face.
Hair details:

Short dark hair, dense and thick, styled upward and slightly messy with dry texture. Keep hairstyle sharp, masculine, and intense.
Face details:

Sweat mixed with blood and dirt, realistic facial injuries, cinematic skin texture, dramatic eyes, strong bone structure, slightly rough lips, raw action-hero appearance.
