If you are a regular reader of this blog then you already know that we are giving extensive coverage to the upcoming marriage between Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai. It is not only the Indian wedding of the year but also a big business for many people. Just think of Gullu Babu and Mr Matin. Did you know anything about them?
I surely never heard their names in my life. These two men are playing crucial behind the scene role about the marriage ceremony of Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai. They have worked extremely hard to weave a golden Sherwani for Abhishek.
SantaBanta reported:
The owner of the Mumbai based design and tailoring house Gullu Babu asked us to be extra careful while weaving the fabric as it was meant for stitching an exclusive sherwani for Abhishek Bachchan to be worn at marriage with Aishwarya,'' the head of the master weaver family Abdul Matin said on Tuesday.
Two month back Gullu Babu himself trouped down to our unit in Peeli Kothi locality here to take the fabric for the ''treasured'' sherwani likely to cost anywhere between Rs two to Rs five lakh.
The owner of 500 handlooms Mr Matin, who claims to head the only weaver family which weaves the 'Chaodani' style fabric in the world said ''it is after a gap of two decades that the golden fabric with a base of warped silk has been woven for anyone.''
Interestingly, the master weaver family which does business as Noorul Hasan Abdul Matin and Company Pvt Ltd has in the past not only sourced out pure silken fabric handloomed for costumes worn by Big B Amitabh Bachchan in 'Khuda Gawah,' but also the blouse and lehenga worn by Aishwarya in the chartbuster number 'Kajrare' in Shaad Ali's 'Bunty aur Bubbly.'
I am very happy to see that Abhishek Bachchan is going for handloom fabric. I personally like handloom fabric a lot.
