Rani was felicitated with an award on Wednesday evening and was seen at the event in a green handloom sari paired with a pink blouse, orange flowers in her hair. She looked lovely in it.
Anyone know this weave? I am not familiar with it.

Rani Mukerji
It looks like a no-border kanchipuram to me with mini buttis and the traditional Oosi kattam (needle checks) zari weave. Gorgeous saree that looks amazing on her!! Major love, and now I’m tempted to buy this green for myself too ?
Hai na? I Feel like replicating this color combo too !
Kanjivaram oosi kattam? But I’m not certain
It is a vaira oosi kancheepuram silk saree to my knowledge. Its quite a popular design of kancheepuran silk saree here in Tamil Nadu.
A Vaira Oosi Kanchipuram saree is a traditional handloom silk sari featuring ultra-fine, parallel zari pinstripes running along the warp of the body, resembling the point of a diamond needle
that’s what I thought too but wasn’t sure . The next time I am in TN , I will buy myself one .
Any store recommendations?
Try Chettinad Handloom, they’re online as well.
Vaira Oosi (diamond needles) are tiny zari pin stripes on the kanchi saree.
Ranis saree has miniature graph paper like zari checks all over, that’s called Oosi kattam (needle checks 🙂
So traditional and soooo lovely!!!
That’s a gorgeous sari. The pink and green colours complement each other well.
She looks lovely!
It is a no border Kanchipuram saree. And she looks amazing. One of my mom’s Vairaoosi saree, literally shines like a diamond, but unfortunately is torn now. These Sarees are insanely expensive now. But silk cotton sarees in vairaoosi and oosi kattams weaves are available that are reasonably proced
So lovely to see Rani in a non-designer handloom. Yep, looks like a Kanjivaram, as others have already said
