"Six Yards of Elegance" is all about the tribute to the spirit of womanhood. It is an expression that encapsulates love of an Indian woman for their husband, children, brother, sister and parents.
No one has ever been able to forget the epic scene from the Mahabharata where Draupadi's dignity was covered and protected by Lord Krishna, We still get goosebumps while watching the "vastraharan" scene where an unending stream of cloth continues to save her.
The said piece of cloth is popularly known as the 'six yards of elegance'.
Keeping in mind all the injustice that has been faced by Indian woman, all the sacrifices that she has been through, and an everlasting patience that she carries, some of the feminist writers have written beautiful write ups as a tribute to her.
