Most likely Celaenorrhinus leucocera.
There are two near identical species , the male with antennae white above,C. leucocera & putra.

C. leucocera.
FW band almost always with a small white spot above radius (upper arm of FW cell).
HW usually more spotted.
Male FW not produced. ie FW lower margin(dorsum) longer than FW outer margin(termen).

C. putra.
FW band without a small spot above the radius especially male.
HW usually less spotted.
Male FW produced ,ie. sharper .FW lower margin (dorsum equals FW outer margin (termen).

The FW shape is impossible to tell with perspective distortion in photos.
However the FW cellspot does shows a faint extension above the radius & the general appearance is closer to C. leucocera.
In the C. putra male the costal area above the FW cellspot is quite black/brown.
