Create a **highly photorealistic, cinematic vertical portrait of a joyful young Indian woman celebrating Durga Puja inside a beautifully decorated traditional Bengali Durga Puja pandal**.
The subject is standing gracefully in the foreground, captured in a natural candid moment, **smiling brightly and looking slightly upward with genuine happiness and festive excitement**. Preserve her natural facial proportions and realistic appearance.
She is wearing an elegant **traditional Bengali white saree with a rich deep-red/maroon woven border and intricate traditional Bengali motifs**, draped naturally in an authentic Bengali style. Add traditional **gold jewelry**, including elegant jhumka earrings, a delicate necklace, bangles, and a subtle traditional Bengali bindi. Her hair is naturally styled, preferably in a graceful traditional hairstyle with a few soft strands framing her face.
She is holding a traditional **clay dhunuchi/incense burner** with both hands. Thick, soft **white dhuno smoke** rises naturally from the burner, swirling around her and partially filling the foreground. The smoke should look physically realistic and atmospheric rather than artificially generated.
In the background, place a magnificent **traditional Bengali Goddess Durga idol**, recognizable but slightly softened by a cinematic shallow depth of field. The idol should feature an ornate golden crown, traditional jewelry, multiple arms, colorful clothing, and an elaborate decorative backdrop.
Surround the scene with **warm glowing diyas, traditional brass lamps, marigold flowers, scattered flower petals, incense haze, festive decorations, and subtle bokeh lights**. Include beautifully decorated red-carpeted steps leading toward the Durga idol to create depth and symmetry.
