The father and son definitely stood out. And why wouldn’t they? After all, a whole lot of research went into the selection of the outfits. Says designer Barkha, “Keeping the santoor and Kashmir in mind, we designed outfits for them. For Panditji, we had designed a Kashmiri kurta and highlighted it with brocade cut-work and China leaves on the neck. For Rahul, we chose a white bundhgala, using dory work signifying the strings of the santoor.”
And how was it being part of history in the making with Mile Sur Mera Tumhara? Barkha answers, “Being Kashmiri ourselves, it was thrilling to design for Pandit Shivkumar Sharma and Rahul. We would like our work to signify exactly what the song Mile Sure Mera Tumhara stands for — peace, unity and of course, beauty like none other.”
