Mul Mul Sarees in Gurgaon, Affordable Sarees in NCR

Gurgaon’s Mul Mul Sarees speak epitomes of a bygone tradition and re-enters Gurgaon to make a
history at  Bandini Sarees. The art relives and many rush for bespokes in Mul Mul other than carrying
a gift for their loved ones . If not for Bollywood's mention of Mul Mul, my knowledge of Mul Mul would
have been incomplete. Cottons have always been the eternal favourites of my father and my first day
in Utkal University, Vani Vihar Orissa was in a Mul Mul which Baba had gifted me. Today women are
passionate and wish  to invest their time by getting Mul Mul Sarees in Gurgaon .


I was nineteen and the saree had spoken by itself. Impressed by the Mul Mul our professor a beautiful
lady with whom I wish to be in my next birth as well other than my own mother, father and brother
would be Prof Prabhat Nandini Dash who took the topic and unfurled the biography of the Mul Mul
looms. Mrs Dash after welcoming us into the class taught us on how tradition and individual talent was
expressed through art lovers and saree aficionados.   


Mul Mul was first woven by  weavers who came from Bangladesh and settled in West Bengal after a
fear gripped in where the Britishers asked them to wear the cottons they had got or abandon weaving.
Accounts say that the thumbs of many were chopped. Slowly some of the weaver community
migrated from Bangladesh through the borders of Siliguri.  They slowly arrived lock, stock and barrel.
The weavers who weaved Mul Mul had to either abandon the system of weaving or had to be ready to
get their thumbs amputated by the Britishers The finest of Mul Muls Sarees can be passed through a
finger ring.


Most of us have heard of various makes of sarees due to a joint family system . Indian Mul muls have
been recognised by the Indian and the Western world. These sarees are purely soft in nature and
have been developed by a host of Bengali weavers in the early days. Such was the impression that
the handweaves was worn by the royals once upon a time. There came a time when the industry was
de recognised and the Britishers wanted that their cottons should prevail in some parts. But then the
patience and perseverance won though we lost precious lives.


Though the tradition went for a back seat in the early years of 1930 , the revival of
Mul Mul sarees in Gurgaon  through Bandini Sarees takes a front seat in Gurgaon.
Mul Mul sarees are brought by Saree connoisseurs and  enjoys a great diplomatic clientele. Most love
its light feel airy nature. They are a prized possession by all.


As we enter into a transitional phase in Indian History we are witnesses to the hands that weave  six
yards of wonder with a theme. The affordable saris in Delhi / NCR come in an incomprehensible
range, at Bandini Saris. Last week a faculty of Fortune Business School asked for a referral on
Bandini Sarees and she was introduced to the sari house through Swagatika a professor of
Organisational Behaviour.  


Swagatika during her wedding anniversary took out some gifts for a select group of friends. Saying
that affordable saris  in Delhi / NCR can be washed at home through Ezee / Genteel they bear  the
stress and strains of everyday life especially when one commutes long distances. Usually these
sarees lend soberness and can be worn at all occasions. Some call them evergreen saris and some
address as all time favourites and ready wear.  Bandini Sarees store Baluchari , Cuttacki, Dhakai,
Georgettes, Crepes and saris that tell a story on the pallus. An impressive range exists in the myriad
collections and one has to buy to believe the inordinate beauty. Within a fortnight we would be
entering the second half of the year and its better that we grab the occasion .
