How to Create a Plasma TV-Like Gradient Border Effect Using CSS?"

Highligted Portion of netflix that I want the code for

Original Image of Netlfix with the curved radial gradient

I am trying to replicate a plasma TV-like glowing border effect similar to the one seen on the Netflix website. I believe the effect can be achieved using CSS gradient and layering techniques. My current approach involves using radial gradients and multiple backgrounds, but I haven't been able to achieve the desired look. But I am not able to create it. What are the correct CSS techniques to:

  1. Create a glowing, plasma-like border effect?
  2. Properly layer gradients or pseudo-elements to enhance the effect?

I have uploaded two images of netflix, one the original image with the glowing plasma tv effect and the other with the annotated part that I am having problem replicating.

I am open to suggestions on:

Any guidance or code snippets to achieve this effect would be appreciated!

I am sharing the HTML and CSS code for your reference:

Now I am sharing the output that I am getting when I execute the code given above

enter image description hereOutput Error in Netlfix Clone


I applied it to a full-screen div, but the gradient does not behave as expected, and I can't seem to achieve a glowing border that appears similar to the plasma TV effect.

I tried copying through inspect element but even then I couldn't perform it.
