    Respected All Members,

    How often have you come across a Rs. 40 lakh ($100,000) silk saree? Chennai, India Silks, a textile unit has come up with one of its kind and it is seeking an unmistakable entry into the Guinness Book of World Records for being the most unique and expensive saree.

    The exceptionally stunning saree is meticulously woven with 12 precious stones and metals to depict 11 of Raja Ravi Verma's popular paintings.

    Explicitly projected is 'Lady Musicians', one of the painter's very famous works that displays women belonging to diverse cultural backgrounds.
    Besides, the border of the saree pictures 10 other paintings of the artist that pays tribute to 20th century artist.

    The best part of the saree being that the women in the paintings are intricately hand-woven and beautified with jewels of gold, diamond, platinum, silver, ruby, emerald, yellow sapphire, sapphire, cat's eye, topaz, pearl and corals.

    Already in the Limca Book of Records, this 40 lakh saree will be the first silk saree that required the use of 7,440 jacquard hooks and 66,794 cards during the weaving process. Moreover, a group of consummate workers took nearly 4,680 hours.

    Its a beautiful saree but i think it would be a better idea to buy 40 lacs real diamonds...and if this saree is sold i would like to know the name of the buyer.

    It's hard to believe in the fact that clothing can be much more expensive than a car... By the way, this saree is really marvelous!

    i don't think 100k can get you a Ferrari, unless you are talking about a really old one

    looks cool,

    i think this is only for rich person to show their status, they will put it in showcase to tell others. or may be only for that textile company to gain reputation and to book a world record in Guinness Book of World Records. ;)

    I don't know about Bollywood starlets, but Hollywood ones can and do wear outfits costing at least this much.
