Ultra Realistic Passport Photo Restoration & Natural Colorization

Restore and colorize this severely damaged old black-and-white passport photo while preserving the original person's identity exactly. Do NOT change the eyes, nose, mouth, face shape, hairstyle, expression, age, skin features, or proportions. Maintain facial authenticity and likeness with maximum accuracy.
Remove all cracks, folds, stains, scratches, torn areas, faded patches, dust marks, paper damage, and discoloration. Reconstruct missing details naturally using the surrounding facial information without altering the person's appearance.
Create a high-quality realistic color portrait with natural South Asian skin tone, black hair in two braids, realistic eyes, natural lips, and original earrings. Keep the light beige school-style shirt exactly as in the photo.
Replace the damaged background with a clean studio passport-photo background in soft blue. Improve sharpness, clarity, contrast, and texture while keeping the image natural and not overprocessed.

IMPORTANT: Eyes, nose, mouth, facial structure, hairstyle, expression, and overall likeness must remain unchanged. No beautification, no face swapping, no AI-generated new face, no age modification.
