Nita Ambani represents the rich cultural heritage of Maharashtra in a Paithani saree

According to designer Manish Malhotra, he designed the custom-made Paithani saree specially for Nita Ambani. The silk saree features an exquisite Paithani border, crafted by Swadesh, that 'perfectly blends regal tradition with unparalleled craftsmanship'. It originates from the historic town of Paithan in Marathwada. Meanwhile, the silk represents the rich cultural heritage of Maharashtra.

According to Swadesh's Instagram page, the Paithani border is handcrafted by artisans using intricate golden threads and floral motifs inspired by the Ajanta cave paintings. The craft originates from Paithan, once the capital of the Deccan region. It has evolved over 2,000 years of artistry - making it a true gem of India's artistic legacy.
