Ordered 100 sarees

Actually, after visiting Kashi Vishwanath temple, Nita went out to eat chaat in the streets of Banaras, after which she called some weavers to her hotel to shop for Banarasi sarees. Here she bought many sarees and also placed an order for at least 100 sarees. She especially liked the Lakhha Buti sarees. Which take 60 to 62 days to make.

The design of Lakhha booti is inspired from Mughal

The history of Banarasi saree is very old, which reflects the culture of Banaras. Usually these sarees are handwoven with pure silk threads and zari work. Lakhha Buti is also a type of this. Lakhha Buta means small and delicate booties, which are woven finely into the cloth. The design in it is inspired by the Mughals. In which beautiful designs like flowers and leaves are made on the saree.

The process of making a saree is so long

Talking to ANI, an artisan Chhotelal Pal said that usually in making sarees, the loom was set at the edge near the Aanchal, which has to be set 3 times in Lakhha Buti. Due to which it takes two months to make a saree. Not only this, apart from the weaver, the help of 20 people is also taken to make it. First there is a drawing to make the saree, then the layout is prepared. After this, they are cut by patching, then it reaches the handkerchief and then it is ready.

Gold and silver zari sarees were also ordered

According to reports, Nita has also ordered 15-20 such sarees. On which designs will be made with real zari as well as gold and silver threads. The price of these sarees ranges from 1.5-2 lakh to 6 lakh rupees. Not only this, Nita has also bought a special saree, which is called Hazar Buti. This saree was prepared in 40 to 45 days and 35 thousand silver bootis are made on it.
