How to Buy REAL Silk Saris in India (Avoid Fakes!)
Manisha shows you how to buy real silk saris and avoid the cheap fake synthetic saris that flood Indian markets. Don't let shopkeepers trick you by knowing how to identify real handwoven and silk sarees in India.
@ManishaMalikIndia explores the lanes of sari makers in Varanasi where India's famous Banarasi Sari is made to find the answers. You'll see exactly how saris are made and she'll tell you exactly how much artificial, art-silk, and 100% pure silk saris cost.
"I was told that 95% of the sarees in the market in Varanasi were fake. These fakes are overpriced too, so not only the artisans are running into losses but the tourists get ripped off as well. Through this video, I help you identify real silk sarees."

Happy Gandhi Jayanti! He has been a great inspiration to Manisha and I to wear khadi and support Made in India / Swadeshi products. Gandhi started the Khadi and Swadeshi Movements during his Satyagraha against British rule. Khadi was, and still is, a symbol of nationalism and self-reliance. It makes me feel proud to wear khadi. Please support Make in India 🙏 Jai Hind.

Share the location where people can purchase directly from the weavers. These will not only help the weavers but also help to preserve the handlooms.
You both show no fake affection, no over love show, and your wife is gem of a person ❤️ you are so lucky to have her in your life 💯

I could not imagine how much those yards of silk would cost in Japan it may be far more expensive than a luxury car
Been to Varanasi myself for saree shopping. This explanation is spot on. Several vendors and weavers have thought me the same. Great video!
She sounds like journalist, quite impressive
It's cool seeing him hard at work making a silk sari. And thank you for showing the differences for those planning a visit

Very calm, social and positive person. Never panics in a crisis. Always supportive.
I lived in Banaras for 3 years but had to leave due to Covid. Gosh, this video hit hard. I miss the city. Showing the ghats, the pit looms, and the gullies gave me such bittersweet feelings. I love the sari. It was so cool to see a video on this channel highlight the handwoven Banarsi saris. ❤️

Real silk is art in itself, and, with appropriate care, you can treasure it for the rest of your life, maybe even hand it down to the next generation. These pieces of garment carry with them not only the story of those who wore them but also the story of those who toiled over the weaving machines to bring them to life. It encourages an appreciation for art and quality, and a sustainable environment as well.

I love these types of video
My two cents: I am not against non-silk as long as they are probably labelled not to cheat an unsuspected victim. A well to do person may afford a Rs.20000 sari but a not wealthy person could buy a Rs.2000 sari to attend a village function or festival. I have been to several silk factories and actually I have interned in a fabric dye factory in my younger days. I have bought and sold oriental rugs about 30+ years ago. A silk rug can cost 30 to 400 times that of a wool rug depending on the silk quality, thread density and country of origin. Thanks for posting this educational video.
