this i think, is such a pertinent statement, because most girls i see today seem to be clones of each other. the same clothes, shoes, bags, brands, makeup and what not. there is no individuality or personality that shines through. with her brand banna, aishwarya aims to break this trend and show indian women that it’s okay to be “yourself”, it’s okay to wear a beautiful saree with a sexy blouse instead of always showing up in the same LBD.
