Ganesh Chaturthi: Free AI prompts to create 3D photos with Bappa
Simple text prompts fed into free AI tools can generate personalised 3D Ganeshotsav photos and captions in seconds
As Ganeshotsav approaches, people send each other greetings on WhatsApp, Instagram and Facebook. But many are tired of sending the same repetitive forwarded photos every year. A new way to do something different has emerged, one that does not even require knowledge of Photoshop. Simply copying the prompts given below and pasting them into a free tool such as Bing Image Creator produces a striking 3D photo with your name on it in ten seconds. Many people are now creating and posting 3D photos with their own names.
The first prompt allows you to add your name to a photo with Bappa. It shows a 22-year-old Indian boy or girl wearing a traditional kurta or saree, seated in front of an eco-friendly Ganpati idol, with the greeting "Happy Ganeshotsav" and the person's name written in golden letters on the wall behind. Users are meant to type their own name in the space provided, and specify "boy" and "kurta" for a boy, or "girl" and "saree" for a girl.
The second prompt shows a spirited dhol-tasha atmosphere similar to Mumbai's immersion processions, with young groups playing dhol-tasha, waving Maratha flags and gulal flying in the air. The third prompt is meant for young children, showing a child in Pixar style hugging a smiling child Ganesha, surrounded by modak and floral decorations. The fourth prompt depicts a traditional home doorway decoration, with a small Ganpati idol amid marigold flowers, mango leaves, rangoli and diyas. The fifth prompt gives a modern Instagram look, with the Ganpati figure glowing in saffron, blue and golden neon colours.
For a good caption to go with the photo, separate prompts can be used in ChatGPT or Gemini. These can generate heartfelt Marathi greetings for elders at home, trendy captions with emojis for friends, formal English messages for office colleagues and clients, spiritual thoughts on Ganpati's wisdom and his form as remover of obstacles, and a four-line Marathi charoli for WhatsApp groups.
To create the photo, search for Bing Image Creator or Microsoft Copilot on Google, which is completely free, and pasting the prompts given above generates the photo instantly. ChatGPT or Gemini can be used to generate the messages or verses.
