How inquisitive of you to find a story not only only on Pashmina but also the personal lives of the people responsible for the industry.. It felt like a NatGeo documentary.

No one can beat this person when it comes to portraying the real beauty of India❤
Dear Saravana Sir . Here are faces I know by heart for I have seen them so many times in repeated viewings of your previous series on Amale and her beautiful family. Good to see that they're all doing well. Thank you for such a wonderful and personal look into these true hardy warriors of the Changthang 🗻
Impressed by your wonderful art of storytelling. The narration, the subtitles, the camerawork, the questions - all are up to the mark. Being a print journalist, you have inspired me to also embrace "documentary journalism". Thank you 'India In Motion'. All the best...

Glad you enjoyed the video Arun. As for the younger generation, I feel that this work will mostly be outsourced when current generation of nomads retire to the cities.
Greetings from Mexico, I appreciate this insightful video, thank you! I love pashmena, respect to the people who preserve this tradition.❤

As a documentary, this is beautiful! However, I feel really sad to see the animals suffering in the process.. u can see how some of them jump to understand that they are feeling pain, but the collectors are not at all sympathetic to it

I cannot watch it! My God! They don't care. They have seen their elders do it , so they have learnt the "art" , however the people need to be taught empathy as well! I can't go there . But, it needs to begin! They need education on empathy and other such things which will make them grow as human beings and also alleviate some of the suffering that animals have to go through.

being a changpa nomad, i want to say that no can be more empathetic to animals then them, you have no idea about what they go through raising them. you try raising at most 50 and then think about how they are raising all those 500 to 600 goats and sheep
Informative. Thank you.
Every time you make a video bhaiya, it fills the heart with such wholesome raw vibes. Thanks a lot for the effort. Keep more coming. ❤

That's a nice name but again just restricted to one place. In the future I want to explore places like Central Asia as well. So looking for a more appropriate name.
More power to you to Saravana.. Its so interesting to hear their stories in their voice.
