Desi women are finally pushing through the boundaries and exploring different professions like never before. And they are doing it all in the most hatke way possible. Take for instance Katya Saini, a PADI (Professional Association of Diving Instructors) scuba diving and IKO kite instructor, setting the internet on fire. Katya’s super cool kiteboarding video is now going viral. You know what’s so cool about the video? She did it while wearing a saree! Honestly, we have not seen anything like this before.
Check out the video:
Badass! And here I am still struggling to drape a saree.
The video was shot in Tuticorin, Tamil Nadu, and has garnered over 11.5M views in 5 days.
We are in awe of Katya’s skills. Even people on the internet couldn’t stop parsing her. They applauded Katya for breaking the barriers and changing the mindset towards a traditional saree. Some of the comments read:
Gone are the days when sarees were seen as a barrier to perform any physical activity, let alone sports. It is definitely inspiring to witness Katya breaking the stereotype and setting an example for all of us. She has effortlessly shown us how one can follow their passion irrespective of what they choose to wear. Kudos to her.
