70s AI photo trend: 6 Gemini prompts to give your photos a retro Indian look

The Indian Express reports on a resurgence of the 1970s AI photo trend, where users employ AI image-generation tools like Google Gemini to transform their photos into retro Indian scenes. The trend emphasizes recreating specific moments with muted colors, film grain, imperfect exposure, faded textures, period clothing, and everyday Indian surroundings.

Users can upload a photograph to Gemini and describe the desired period, setting, mood, lighting, and photographic style. The outlet provides four prompts to recreate 1970s-style scenes, including a department-store escalator, an optical shop, a civic wall, and a rooftop photography class.
