Art style: Lo-Fi Anime. A modest but bright living room with golden sunlight streaming through a lace-curtained window. Arjun is standing next to his mother, handing her a small stack of banknotes with a humble, proud smile. His mother looks at him with teary eyes and a hand over her heart in surprise. Shot from a medium eye-level angle. The atmosphere is heartwarming and triumphant. Warm golden hour lighting fills the space, creating a soft glow. Dominant colors are soft cream, gold, and the vibrant green of a nearby potted plant. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt): Render this image in the following art style: 16-bit pixel-art blended with modern webtoon comic illustration in a retro 90s anime aesthetic — crisp thick black outlines, cel-shaded coloring with flat colors and hard dramatic shadows. Gritty urban lo-fi hip-hop vibe. Moody atmospheric lighting with vibrant neon accents (purple, magenta, red) on dark backgrounds. Subtle CRT scanline overlay, glowing elements, expressive sharp anime-influenced features, streetwear clothing. Every surface, skin, fabric, material, and environmental element must be rendered in this idiom. Character appearance reference (MUST match exactly): - Arjun: A young South Asian man in his early 20s with short, neatly styled dark hair and a slight stubble. He has expressive, deep brown eyes that convey a range of emotions from intense worry to calm confidence. He wears a simple, slightly faded charcoal grey t-shirt in early scenes, transitioning to a crisp, well-fitted navy polo shirt later. His build is lean. He is often seen in a modest, dimly lit apartment or a modern home office. The lighting transitions from harsh blue screen light to warm, natural sunlight. The style is cinematic with a focus on realistic textures and high-quality lighting.
