I used to help people #drape saree and so they started recommending me to others, this is how I realized To change this passion into profession. Saree is classic Indian attire and has perennial and eminent history and I want to popularize the art of perfect saree draping.

Maheshwar is a beautiful riverside town in Madhya Pradesh. In the 18th century, Ahilyabai Holkar, who ruled the princely state of Indore, promoted the tradition of hand #weaving here. Well over two centuries later, the town remains famous for its Maheshwari #sarees.
Btw 2012 & 2015, more than 200 weavers have migrated to Maheshwar due to the growing opportunities in its #handloom enterprises. This is unusual & contrary to the trend in a sector that is in steep decline.
It is also unusual that young people are among the weavers playing a pivotal role in reviving the #craft. They are an inspiration to the weaving community of this historic town. In this #film, the young #weavers tell their story: ruralindiaonline.org/articles/weave…
