Mumbai, Aug 19 : Designer duo Abu Jani and
Sandeep Khosla, known for rediscovering and reviving ancient Indian arts
such as chikan and zardosi, launched their book "India Fantastique",
and Amitabh Bachchan says he was overwhelmed by the "sea of Indian
celebration".
"Above all the magnificence, the one factor that
has made it most attractive has been the Indianness in every breath that
one took. From the 'mogras' to the dresses of the models, right down to
the ladies and gents in the guest list, it has been a sea of Indian
celebration. And for this, I am most proud," the 69-year old said.
Abu
Jani and Sandeep Khosla launched the book Saturday at industrialist
Mukesh Ambani's residence. It marks their silver jubliee in the fashion
world.
Giving an insight into the book, Big B, who is on their
clientele list, wrote on his blog srbachchan.tumblr: "The colour, the
finesse of their designs, the intricacy of their workmanship, the
quality of the material and its appropriate positioning, all have been
put together over the years in matchless dimensions inside this
exquisite book.
"'India Fantastique' may be the reflection of a
materialistic form, but even there the material of the fabric is strong,
lasting and most Indian."
Mukesh and his wife Neeta Ambani hosted the event. Big B says it was a memorable evening.
