Aamir
Khan
recently
gifted
a
Rs.25,
000
handloom
saree
to
Kareena
Kapoor
made
by
handloom
workers
of
Chanderi
village
in
Madhya
Pradesh.
Kareena
was
overwhelmed
by
the
present.
Kareena
was
asked
to
fly
down
to
Madhya
Pradesh
for
two
days.
She
had
to
travel
for
14
hours
to
reach
Chanderi.
All
this
while,
she
didn"t
know
where
they
were
going
and
all
she
knew
was
that
they
had
to
meet
Aamir.
So
when
she
received
the
black
and
gold
traditional
saree,
like
the
ones
the
weavers
used
to
make
for
the
nawabs,
she
was
overjoyed.
According
to
Kareena,
Aamir
Khan
wanted
her
to
have
the
saree
because
she
is
a
style
icon
and
she
should
promote
the
work
of
these
handloom
industries.
The
ancestors
of
the
workers
used
to
work
for
royal
families.
Kareena
and
Aamir
went
to
the
workers" homes,
interacted
with
them
and
saw
that
they
live
in
miserable
conditions
and
make
only
about
Rs.
50
while
the
designers
borrow
their
work
and
sell
it
for
Rs.30-40,000.
Aamir
has
invited
some
of
the
workers
to
the
premiere
of
3
Idiots.
