Welcome to Sri Varadhan Khadi Vasthram
KKV means Kasthuriba Khadi Vasthralayam. The brand name captures the aesthetics of tradition & contemporary Indian art.The raw materials may be cotton, silk or wool which are spun into threads on a traditional spinning wheel called chakhra. It is a versatile fabric, cool in summer and warm in winter . In india, Khadi / Khadar is not just a cloth, it is a whole movement started by Mahatma Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi. The Kadhi / Khadar movement aimed to boycotting foreign goods and promoting Indian goods, thereby improving india's economy. In India, the Freedom struggle revolved around the use of khadi fabrics and the dumping of foreign-made clothes. Even, the father of nation Mr . Mahatma Gandhiji was wearing only a khadi dhoti. The flag of Indian congress has this khadi chakhra on it and the flag of india is allowed to be made from Khadi material. As a token of gratitude to our indian independence movement, KKV is re-launched as a symbol of traditional indian khadi fabrics, as it was the first family business from the “Groups of The Chennai Silks”.
