If sarees were originally Pakistani, then why did General Zia ul Haq restrict them in public spaces, government offices & state institutions? Not only sarees, you tried to erase every cultural practice that was even remotely related to Hinduness or Indian culture. Now after a bout of collective amnesia, you suddenly want to claim these cultural symbols again.

For all those not getting it, THIS is what prevents appropriation. Anyone now copying aspects will know more and more where the ideas were stolen from.

west stealing our fashion and then talking about "how India should leave fashion to Italy and France" like stfu.

There is something fascinating about Ridley Scott and Christopher Nolan doing interviews where they drawl in an Oxford fartsniff accent about "the craft", only to produce tasteless drivel like this every few years. Tabloid writers are from the same class. A British tradition.

@epppyyy @TRoary86641 Just because your fairytale book of colonisers mentions india that doesn't absolve them being a colonisers faith.

There’s a moment in The Odyssey trailer where a forehead didn’t move or rather I should say— didn’t crease the way a natural forehead does and your money is yours to do whatever you please but when you are required to convey emotions for a living I think you are at an impasse.

This stunning bronze look is rooted in Indian Hindu heritage, drawing inspiration from the standing bronze statue of Uma (Pārvatī), the Goddess. — 𖹭.ᐟ
