APart from being the holiday season, December is the month to celebrate family, friendship, and life. Closer home, in Chennai, this month is a festival. The Tamil month, Margazhi, is usually associated with music and dance. But, according to Lakshmi and Saraswathi from Event Arts, "Margazhi is not just about the arts. From MS Subbulakshmi's saris to TN Seshagopalan's angavastram, the audience would discuss their attire, too. So we wanted to showcase this sartorial splendour on the ramp."
Taking this discussion and innovation onto a larger stage, Event Arts in association with Radisson Blu Hotel and Suites GRT Chennai held Marvellous Marghazhi last year. The showstopper was Vyjayanthimala Bali, a parliamentarian, dancer, and actress. "Seeing her walk the ramp was a poignant reminder of the timeless elegance that bridges the past and present," shares Vikram Cotah, CEO of GRT Grand Hotels and Resorts.
