The landmark year doesn’t just mark our freedom from the invaders who ruled the country for 200 years, but also is a celebration of each Indian’s right to live freely and without Withfear. our rich diversity across 28 states, 8 Union Territories, 121-plus languages and 270 dialects and mother tongues, we are home to a mind-boggling variety of cultures, customs, foods, dress codes and habits – integrated despite our differences, and co-habiting peacefully enough, Unityconsidering.indiversity was the most cliched essay we grew up writing about in school, but truly, today which other country in the world can come close to this level of multifariousness within a single nation’s borders. It’s quite astonishing, if you pause to think about it for a moment. Let’s allow ourselves some rightful nationalistic pride over this.

75 years of Independent India

This 15th August, India celebrates 75 years of Independence, and the Government has declared it as “Azaadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav” to commemorate the occasion.

Coming down to the most current source of pride, India has brought home 61 medals including 22 Gold, 16 Silver and 23 Bronze in the Commonwealth Games, a big tally for a special year. Kudos to all the sportspersons and their indomitable spirit. Keeping our faces to the sun and heads held high, we cheer our beautiful country on to continue to be a beacon to the world – of peaceful brotherhood, cultural colourfulness, and sustained growth and achievement all around.

BENGALURU 2022 | AUGUST SECOND HALF | 19 MSU ROCKS THE FASHION WORLD ACROSS GENERATIONS

Top shopping destination SMITI JAIN NARAYAN

The iconic Mysore Saree Udyog (MSU) showroom stands as a landmark destination on Kamaraj Road, at right angles to Commercial Street where Bangaloreans like to flock to, for all their ethnic fashion needs. After decades of bringing customers the best of sarees and silks curated from across the country, the company continues on its onward journey with the next generation of the MSU family firmly in the driving seat.Starting with Anil who joined the family business in 1993, to others who came on board 2009 onwards including Aditya, Roshni, Dhruv and Anuj – all are hands-on and infusing the organisation with their young energy, with the older generation stalwarts Kamlesh Talera and Dinesh Talera as the guiding lights to lead the young brigade on. Mysore Saree Udyog has been a company of pioneers from the beginning, always forward looking and adapting to changing tech and market conditions and adapting to

BY

evolving consumer taste. A testimony of the company’s forward-thinking approach to business is the fact the MSU was the first textile company in India to have barcoding, with appropriate software installed for the company’s needs. E-commerce has been embraced and technology has been used effectively by the management.Withthe induction of the new generation, Mysore Saree Udyog went into expansion mode and the iconic store space was increased from 3000 sq ft to 8000 sq ft with more floors added to accommodate shoppers’ needs, including an exclusive designated bridal area as a niche for brides and their families to try out their ensembles. Innovation has been a major factor in the success story of MSU, with various types of growth in every aspect of the business, including many in-house brands which have been developed, with focus on integration of product varieties to match the diverse customer profiles. In the lifecycle of MSU, one of the key aims has been to bring back the younger lot of customers to the ethnic fold, to appreciate and enjoy pure silks and authentic weaves. MSU

BENGALURU 2022 | AUGUST SECOND HALF | 20

A large part of the MSU clientele is the wholesale customer, consisting of other retailers, fashion designers and boutique owners. The showroom is open from 6:30 am every day to cater to this segment of buyers before the regular retail customers start coming in for shopping, and closes at 9 pm. Designers and boutique owners come from across the country and even from abroad like Switzerland and other places for bulk purchase of fabrics, knowing that they will get the best range of materials and designs with authenticity guaranteed. The company is very much in demand with this B2B sector of customers who swear only by MSU.

MSU is a destination store. If you are in or around Bangalore, then it is a must-visit shopper’s paradise. In fact, MSU has been named as being among the world’s top 10 destination stores worldwide by Vanity Fair magazine.

is in sync with modern taste and has a finger on the pulse of youngsters’ aesthetic. Wooing the current generation with their authentic products and sensitising them to the beauty of the Indian textiles like ikkat, or hand embroideries like zari work and other detailing is high on the company’s agenda. In fact, MSU has India’s largest curated fabric floor for intergenerational needs across the spectrum. Many customers are designers themselves, so there is a lot of variety for mix-and-match options, for self-designed stitched outfits to get that unique stand-outfrom-the-crowds ensemble. MSU caters in a very large way to the designer segment, apart from the regular retail shoppers. MSU is known for their authentic zari sarees. In fact, they give you a certification of authentication for zari, so you can rest assured on the zari purity.

It’s interesting that MSU has never done any sales or promotions, for the simple reason that their daily rates itself are competitive, with the option of MSU legacy being taken forward by next generation: Standing: Anil, Aditya & Anuj; Sitting: Dhruv & Roshni

buy-back if a customer is able to get the same item elsewhere for a lesser price. The company has relied on word-of-mouth and repeat customer sales to grow exponentially, as each satisfied customer becomes MSU’s biggest advertiser. As compared to regular saree shops, MSU is much more organised with great quality of service and a complete range of all types of silks, sarees and fabrics all under one roof. MSU appreciates the support of its customers, its weaver community with small looms, handicraft artisans and others who have stayed loyal to the brand all through, even during the trying two years of the pandemic when it was a huge strain to not hive off staff. The brand garnered great support online during the lockdown period. Apart from online presence, the loyal customers which have been constantly growing by word-ofmouth like to shop at the store itself for the touch-and-feel of fabrics, trials and the sheer variety of all

Bengaluru City Map

LANDMARKS

Parks, landmarks, places of religious interest... With Bengaluru, the sobriquets keep getting added up. From Air Conditioned City to Aviation Capital to Garden City, this small town turned technopolis has added a new word to the American lexicon: ‘Bangalored’. It means ‘to lose one’s job’ as a result of off shoring work to India. That’s not all. The city is emerging as a medical tourism hub in India by offering ‘First World Service at Third World Cost’. What’s more, the best and the brightest multinationals are spicing up the retail scene by test-marketing large format stores like Reebok, Levi’s, Adidas, Esprit and Nautica. It’s become a ‘yuppie heaven’.

Now that’s yet another sobriquet for the city. With the Metro Rail opening in phases, things are getting better by the day. Visit the city and be bowled over.

CITY SIGHTS,SIGHTSHIGHLIGHTS,

SHIVA STATUE Kemp Fort, Old Airport Road Located behind on Old Airport Road, this statue is 65 feet tall, depicting Lord Shiva in lotus position. It has the backdrop of Mount Kailash, Shiva’s heavenly abode and the river Ganga flowing from his matted locks.

Things to watch out for: the sandalwood door to the Cabinet Room, and the Speaker’s Chair which is made of Mysore rosewood.

•Alcohol may not be served at some of these places, as per Supreme Court regulation. Please call the pub/restaurant to confirm.

The city is famous for its bars and pubs. It’s called the Beer Capital of India. With good reason. But the best reason to pub hop? It’s cosmopolitan crowd and the niche pubs that serve a select clientele. There are lounge spaces for the ladies, retro lovers and jazz enthusiasts. Not to mention, resto-bars, sports bars, roof-top bars, hookah bars, dance bars and cigar lounges for the casual and adventurous. Not to mention, the city’s first wine boutique pub. Reason enough to rewind, reboot and restart.

No longer is the city confined to the central business districts of MG Road and Commercial Street or the traditional business districts of Majestic and KR Market. Malls, boutiques and department stores have mushroomed in every nook and cranny, bringing comfort goods closest to you. If you are new to the city, your visit isn’t complete without a visit to its silk and jewellery hotspots. Not to mention, handicraft stores for their sandalwood and antique masterpieces.
