"I discovered sari much later in my life... I grew up in hills where there is almost no tradition of wearing saris. But when I became an artist, my love for saris started gradually. Through acting, I got an opportunity to travel to different places and see different cultures. That's how my journey with saris started,” IANS quoted Ranaut as saying.

"It (sari) makes me look more feminine. When I wear a sari, I automatically feel more free and able to express myself better... There is some magical power in saris," the Queen actress said during the launch of Taneira, a flagship handloom sari store by Titan, on Monday (Nov 10). While talking about the beauty of saris, Kangana also expressed concern.

"No doubt, the trend of saris is always there, but not as much as it should be. We have a lot to do. Till now, our weavers are suffering. There were thousands of handicraft firms which have disappeared. With synthetic fibre gaining popularity among youth, handloom weavers are suffering, so we have a long way to go," she said.

For the inauguration ceremony of the store, Kangana was dressed in a handcrafted Banarasi moonlight blue coloured sari from Taneira's collection. She was accompanied by her elder sister Rangoli, reads the report.

Asked what's her favourite sari look, Kangana smiled and said: "I feel comfortable in saris the most. Be it my airport sari look with sneakers or top bun, or be it a complete Indian traditional look, I love all the looks.”
