Reel Life vs Real Life

Hi all,

I have shared many posts of this traditional rustic attire from movies. We have seen plenty of actresses and models wear this dress.
But these weren't from their real life; these were part of their reel life. Most actresses wore it during song sequences or for scenes when their character is supposed to be dressed in lungi. Same are the cases with models; they were it for photo-sessions or for advertisements.

Lets talk about how it is in real life. I am pretty sure none of them wear lungi blouse in real life. The dress is very very rare. Mostly worn by women over 50 and rarely worn my women under 40.

It is like there are more men who like these dresses than women. I personally know many (including myself) who love to see women dressed in lungi blouse. I have been one of the lucky ones; my wife too likes this dress and fortunately she used to wear this even before we started a relationship. I think it is safe to believe that this isn't that common; infact this is very rare.

I had planned for a post where reader of this blog can share their experience with this attire. I had communicated with few of them(who mail me) via mail. I will soon share that post. Mean while this post if for the other readers to share their experiences : Men , share what makes you like this attire, tell us what you expect from your better half on this and their thoughts on this. Women, please share your thoughts on this attire and your experience wearing this (if any). Feel free to comment as anonymous.


This pic of Sona is the only one of any actress where they have worn lungi blouse thorthu at their home/privacy and not in a movie set or for photo session.
