Krishna R The term “Sambalpuri bandha” sadhi or saree refers to a type of traditional handwoven bandha (ikat) sari in which the warp and the weft are tie-dyed before weaving. It is made in the Indian state of Odisha’s Sambalpur, Balangir, Bargarh, Boudh, and Sonepur districts. A strip of unstitched fabric that can be anywhere between four and nine metres in length and is draped over the body in a variety of ways makes up the traditional feminine clothing known as the sari on the Indian subcontinent. Sambalpuri saris are renowned for incorporating traditional motifs such as shankha (shell), chakra (wheel), and phula (flower), all of which have deep symbolism with the native Odia colour red, black, and white represent true Odia Culture in addition to Lord Kaalia’s (Jagannatha’s) face colour, but the highlight of these saris is their use of rich, vibrant fabrics.
