Arpitha Rai it goes without saying that I will most definitely share it with my friends and family. I just am in love with the way you conducted the interview and how professional you were with your questions. Also the way you made Mr Chandra's family comfortable enough to be open about their art and way of living. It was raw and stark and the fact that it didn't have frills to it made the whole thing more compelling and the narration took on a more realistic outlook. I hope you consider doing more documentaries because you have an aptitude for it.

Oh wow!! You have noticed so much in the video and such a good feedback! Thank you so much.. your good words are really encouraging. I'm very happy that you'll share this video.. thanks a lot.

@DM-ss4js 6 жыл бұрын

Arpitha Rai If the content is good, then it is a simple yes. Always add on subtitles and by making it interactive i.e, asking viewers opinions and questions as well as perhaps having polls on what to do the next video on will help loads because the audience knows that you are engaging with them and that our thoughts do matter to you. It is a slow process but ultimately a fulfilling one of you enjoy being in front of the camera as well as the back . :)

The final work came in the frame. And then my heart skipped a beat. Thank you for this video. I have been really looking to buy handpainted Kalamkari and saw many options online (Fabindia has one selling for Rs.2999/-), but had many doubts. This video is not just educational but also makes it so easy to purchase. Also, the fact that the money is going directly to the artist is very gratifying, especially how the ground reality is (explained so succinctly by Chandra ji) Thanks a zillion :)

@arpitharai 5 жыл бұрын

Devika, thank you so much for such nice words.. I look for this kind of support to work on more such videos. These fabrics are generally expensive than the regular mill made ones as the whole process is such an intricate one.. these brands will definitely add their margins as they have to advertise, maintain a big store and get the customers to buy.. it's just business.. so my main goal through this video was to guide my audience to the artisan directly..I get messages from them saying people are calling them from different parts of India n buying fabric from them. Such a satisfaction it is 😇😇

Hi Malathi, I am happy that you liked the video. So many efforts went into it.. When I see these comments it feels like success. Machilipatnam Kalamkari uses buffalo milk. As you are planning to use for interiors not going to wear them, do you need to be so particular about milk being used?

Nice video Arpitha, need help to know how to get rid of the smell of this kalamkari cloth. I am not able to use my dupatta which I bought from an artisan.

@arpitharai 5 жыл бұрын

Hey Anupama, that smell comes because of the raw milk n the seed paste which they apply before getting started with the painting. All that mixture helps the colour to stick to the fabric. With washes the smell should go. I have a video explaining how to carefully wash kalamkari : kzfaq.info/get/bejne/l96gdaiYr8fchmQ.html

Salt water dip should take the most of the smell away. Won't go in one wash. It needs some washes though

As Kalam means pen and Kari means work. So I want to know all that why it is named like that? I mean is there any sharp outline done with pen or is it done by it's basic outline sketch with pen ???

You got the meaning correct. There is a special pen made to draw with the natural dyes in Kalamkari hand painting technique. They do the outlines first with tamarind coal made into small sticks (like pencils) then they draw with the special pen using natural dyes. They do the filling with natural dyes as last step. It is just like doing painting on canvas but they do it on fabric and create beautiful clothing for us.

I would suggest to google for workshops on kalamkari hand painting. You can contact the artist and request if they would like to take workshops for fee.
