A Note from Avani to Maa

Maa,

I’ve grown up watching you with fabric in your hands — head bent, eyes full of focus, heart completely in it. Some of my most vivid memories are of you stitching beautiful pieces for us at home. I used to sit quietly and admire how your ideas turned into real, wearable art — how you made it look effortless, even magical.

Kahanni is my way of holding onto that magic. Of showing the world the quiet brilliance I’ve witnessed all my life.

This brand carries your spirit — your love for details, your patience, your grace.
It’s not just a tribute to handloom. It’s a tribute to you.

There was no other way to begin this — than by building it with you, and watching what you love come to life.

Avani

We don’t just make sarees. We preserve stories.

Kahanni was born from a quiet conversation between a mother and daughter — one stitched with memories, traditions, and the rustle of old sarees pulled out from a wooden trunk. It’s more than a brand. It’s a tribute.

To the women who never threw away their old sarees — because they carried the scent of a first job, a farewell hug, a wedding morning.

To India — not the one you see in brochures, but the one you feel in your nani’s kitchen, your maa’s almirah, and the corners of forgotten looms.

At Kahanni, we travel across India to find not just fabrics, but the people and places behind them. Every collection is a chapter. Every saree is a character. Every thread has a voice.

This is our way of remembering what must not be forgotten. Of holding onto something real in a world that moves too fast.

Of saying — this is us. This is our Kahanni. And maybe, it’s yours too.

Why Kahanni is Special

Bring home more than a saree. Bring home a story.
