That alone would be a fitting tribute to their passion and devotion towards their masterful craft.” Over the years, Vidya Balan has opted for not just wearing local handloom products but also extensively promoting them through her social media.

With throwback pictures from 2018, Tahira Kashyap Khurrana took a look back at her chemotherapy days saying, "This is from 1 December 2018. I was done with 10 chemotherapy sessions. Used some spray and powder to cover the areas from where I was losing hair. But did I want to shy away from the world? Nope! Love from family and friends and most importantly my faith in my practise lead me to believe and know that this version of myself is beautiful too. This is my #handloom story".
Emerging as the source of inspiration for strength and positivity, Tahira has carved a niche for herself amongst the audience with her diverse work.
