Karva Chauth is a special festival, and many people want to capture its magic in photos. With Google’s Gemini AI, you can now edit your festive pictures — adding traditional touches, moody lighting, and more — without altering your face. Let’s see how this works and check out prompts you can use.
Why “100% Real Face” Matters
One big concern with AI photo editing is — will it distort your identity? Newer versions of Gemini (especially with the Nano Banana / DeepMind enhancements) aim to preserve facial features even when applying stylistic changes.
So when you see the phrase “100% real face,” it means the prompt tells Gemini to maintain your original face while transforming surroundings, attire, lighting, and mood.
How to Use Gemini for Karva Chauth Photo Edits
Here’s a simple step-by-step:
- Open the Google Gemini app (make sure it’s updated).
- Go to the Nano Banana / image editing section within Gemini.
- Upload the source photo (selfie or couple photo).
- Paste your prompt — include your vision (attire, lighting, props, mood).
- Add instructions like “face unchanged / preserve facial features / no distortion”.
- Hit Generate / Edit and refine if needed.
- Save/download your Karva Chauth–themed image.
To get great results:
- Use a high-resolution, well-lit input image (so Gemini has clear facial data).
- Avoid overly complex backgrounds; keep the subject (person) clear.
- Use negative cues like “no blur,” “no extra hands,” or “don’t change face.”
- Start with one prompt, then tweak with modifiers like “warm lighting,” “moonlit,” or “traditional saree.”

- Iterate: If first result isn’t perfect, adjust prompts (e.g. lighting, background complexity).

- Don’t impersonate people or produce misleading images.
- Respect privacy and consent, especially for couple or portrait edits.
- Some AI platforms embed watermarks or identifiers (e.g. SynthID) to mark content as AI-generated. Gemini/DeepMind updates include features that help distinguish AI edits.
