Actor Manjari Mishra, who was seen in the Gujarati film Fuleku, the Bollywood film Rocket Gang, and the short film Main Tumhara, is a saree lover. Her reels donning sarees have garnered a lot of attention, and she has received a lot of positive feedback for it.
She said, “The decision to start making reels in a saree likely stemmed from a desire to celebrate and honor Indian traditions and culture, while also engaging with a wider audience on social media platforms. It’s a way to showcase the beauty and elegance of the attire while also sharing meaningful content.”
“Earlier people would say, ‘are you going somewhere special’ if they saw someone wearing a saree, but now sarees are no more that occasion wear thing, from markets to malls, vacations, it’s everywhere, and today’s generation takes pride in draping it. So, I tried to include that pride in my reels, and I am happy that it is being received well,” she added.
She believes the saree holds significant cultural and traditional value in India. “They represent not just a piece of clothing but also symbolize heritage, grace, and diversity. Wearing a saree in reels can serve as a means of preserving and promoting these cultural aspects while also celebrating individual expression and creativity,” she said.
Manjari believes that creators collaborate with brands that align with their values and objectives, whether it’s promoting cultural diversity, technology, or other relevant themes. “Even though I have collaborated with brands that resonate with my values, I also try to see the price value. What is the point of becoming a creator or an influencer when everything is highly priced,” she said.
