Bunkar documents the obscure lives of the tireless handloom weavers of Varanasi. For all the times that art has helped shape society, today an art is calling out to us. If we do not step up now, we may lose it forever. @i_satyaprakash #handloomday #bunkarthedocumentary #varanasi

#WATCH | Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh: On Indian Fashion Designer Manish Malhotra's fashion show on the theme 'Banarasi Saree- A tapestry of Indian culture & Craftsmen', actress Kriti Sanon says, "I always wanted to wear something handwoven which is symbolic of our heritage and culture... The best part about the Banarasi saree is that the weavers weave only one saree of a kind. It takes days to weave one piece... This thing should be taken out to the world. I am glad that I could be part of this initiative. Kashi is a very good example of Vikas Bhi Virasat Bhi... Even after a lot of redevelopment that Kashi has seen in the last 10 years, the soul of Kashi is still the same..." (14.04)

BEWARE! If the #benarasi saree you bought is not #Handloom then it’s not a real Benarasi.
Support Weavers! Buy Handloom!
