Radhika Gupta was one of the Sharks on Shark Tank India 3. Besides being a successful businesswoman, she is also a person who possesses endless love for sarees. Only recently, Radhika took to her social media handle and posted a picture of herself wearing the first saree she owned. The MD and CEO of Edelweiss Mutual Fund penned a long note, detailing her affair with the six yards of elegance.

Radhika candidly opened up about how she initially struggled to tie a saree but now can do it within a minute. The entrepreneur revealed that the first saree that she owned was gifted by her maternal grandmother. The former Shark Tank India 3 judge wrote, “Never forget firsts! This is the first saree I owned, gifted by my Nani when I was 18, and the one my mom taught me to tie. In hope that I would occasionally continue to wear sarees while living and studying abroad. Georgette with a temple border.”

She added, “It marks the beginning of my affair with sarees and I wear this 23 year old thing every now and then. To remind me of a journey from 1 to 300 (!!!) odd sarees, from struggling to tie one to doing it in a minute and jumping on a train in a saree, and mostly from feeling nervous about how I look to finding a more confident version of myself.”

Further, Radhika Gupta asserted that sarees never go out of style. In the posted picture, she is seen wearing a black georgette saree with golden temple borders. The MD and CEO of Edelweiss Mutual Fund added a striking contrast by pairing it with a golden blouse. Her minimal approach to styling the ensemble proves that simplicity always rocks when blended with comfort and elegance.
