A beautiful Byloom with little ghungroos on the pallu. The story behind it: a dear friend and colleague was travelling to Kolkata on work. I asked her to please buy me something from Byloom if she was going there. She actually took all the trouble of going there to buy me a saree even though she had no plans to buy anything for herself. The minute she spotted this one, she thought it had my name written all over it.

Aired at the colony Independence Day celebrations where my kids performed – My sons on the casio and my daughter singing with my mother – super special. For once worn with a proper saree blouse – in green to celebrate a flag colour.
