The mysterious Indian saree !
I was always baffled by Sarees worn by the ladies of our
house as well as our country. It will be probably true for all
husbands -I mean the husbands of our country at least !
I was watching a TV show and was completely unaware about
what was happening behind me . Later I recognized that I got
involved in an unwanted situation-without knowing or caring
to know.
My wife was busy near the almirah and she was accompanied
by my brother's daughter ( aged around 23/24 years ) who is
a school teacher. I was remotely aware of their activity though
too occupied with the TV show to pay much attention.
The outcome however was probably not very agreeable as I
presumed later.
Saraswati Puja was just ahead and it is always expected that
ladies-specially school teachers-were expected to be present
before their students in sarees.
Well to come back to the point- yes I probably made a great
mistake unknowingly. I decided to intrude in the much guarded
ladies world of SAREES !
When I found too much commotion going on at the back-office I
very foolishly decided to end it-with one stroke. I rather casually
asked them to show me the sarees. Within a second I made a
a choice and the sweet lady picked it up and vanished. Finally
I ended the confusion-thought I -and decided to watch the TV
once again.
Thoughts came rushing back to me after I switched off the
TV to face the real world !! At least a few thousand questions
constantly pestered me -and I lost my peace of mind !!!
Oh -how I waited patiently to find out the outcome of this
bizarre situation !
Finally I was relieved -Relieved in the truest sense of the
word- when the lady showed me few pics of their function.
After all -my choice was not as bad- thought I -watching
eagerly at the young lady in the picture who simply looked her
best in that Saree !
