    Reza, I am a newbie in the bespoke tailor world and new subscriber to your channel, I must say you content is A++. Your hand stitching video, in my opinion very organized and well taught. The highlight of this video to me was your introduction to Mr. Merchant was, to put it nicely, Constructive Criticism "you are not a master". That totally threw me off and thereafter I found myself harshly judging Mr. Merchant at every moment of this conversation. I will keep my opinions to myself, however you are doing a fantastic job and I applaud you for taking the time to share your knowledge and passion for bespoke garments with the world.

    Amit, thank you for your comment and sharing your thoughts honestly. Mr. Merchant is correct however. I am not a master. I am still only in my 7th year of tailoring and am learning many things. Nonetheless there is a lot of exciting content lined up for you on this channel and I hope to do good with it. Stay tuned my friend.

    Very very inspiring Lalu Sir . Would love to meet you someday. Like you we too belong to a Tailoring caste and the profession is getting passed from father to son for generations. When I was listening to you I felt it's my father whose talking. My dad n you should definitely meet soon.
