Character appearance reference (MUST match exactly): - Aarav: A lean, athletic Indian man of about 22 with warm brown skin, dark expressive eyes, short black tousled hair and a faint stubble. He wears a plain off-white cotton kurta with rolled sleeves over faded blue work trousers, and a saffron cloth tied around his forehead. His forearms are dusty with clay. His expression is earnest, hopeful and fiercely determined. He stands in soft pale dawn light by a misty river, with mud-brick houses and green hills blurred behind him. Head-and-shoulders portrait, gentle rim light, natural and grounded. - Kaveri: An elderly Indian woman of about 72 with deeply lined, kind brown skin, silver hair pulled into a bun, and bright knowing eyes. She wears a worn cotton saree in faded green with a thin white border and a shawl over her shoulders. Small silver bangles sit on her wrists. Her expression is calm, proud and tender, with a slight smile. Soft morning mist and a muted village riverbank behind her. Head-and-shoulders portrait, soft diffused light, dignified and gentle. - Meera: A strong young Indian woman of about 21 with medium brown skin, a determined gaze and a long black braid over one shoulder. She wears a mustard-yellow cotton kurta with dust-streaked sleeves tied back, dark trousers and a white scarf knotted around her neck. Her hands are calloused and her cheek has a smudge of clay. Her expression is fierce and bright, with a confident half-smile. She stands before a river valley at early morning with a stack of river stones behind her. Head-and-shoulders portrait, natural soft light.
