Usha Uthup

My association with Kanishka’s is long, colorful, aesthetic, ethnic, warm, honest, loving, learning and full of surprises. Some good relationships in life are very difficult to pin point when and how it happens. This is one of those beautiful relationships I have with Nandita di & Kanishka’s but I think it all truly started in all earnest when the Kolkata Video was being done. And I think I’m the first one of its kind who just spread her message of love through a song on a Saree. And I probably decided to spread my message through Saree “Kolkata Kolkata, Don’t Worry Kolkata” through my songs. She has designed my Sarees in Hindi, Malayalam, Bengali, Marathi, Tamil and English.

She has also done designed beautiful scarves for peace, for Nelson Mandela, Richard Gere, Bill Clinton, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, Sonia Gandhi, Prince Charles, Amitabh Bachchan and many more wonderful people.
