My Story

Sarees have always been my jam. You know, all that pleating and folding? It’s tricky, but I love it. I started Saarika Saree Services to help women skip the stress and actually enjoy wearing their sarees. Nothing beats seeing someone walk out of my workshop, grinning, saree skills unlocked. It’s not just a job for me - it’s sharing my saree love with anyone who wants in.
