“By celebrating World Ethnic Day, we get an opportunity to go back to our roots. I feel strongly about the dying art of handlooms in the country, and also about the plight of artisans who are struggling for livelihood. I am delighted with the opportunity to spread awareness about it," Vidya said in a statement.


World ethnic Day envisages a world held together by its roots - a world that respects heritage, civilisation, anthropology, art and culture.

The company has brought the traditionally disorganised ethnic craft industry on to a structured platform.

“We are thrilled to have Vidya Balan endorse World Ethnic Day. There is tremendous synergy between her vision and ours. Vidya is a living ambassador for everyday ethnic. Her remarkable success and body of work stand testimony to ethnic is cool," said Manoj Gupta, founder of Craftsvilla.com.
