It's not exactly cakewalk to work out in uncomfortable clothing. In fact, this is exactly why clothing companies have a separate line for clothes which are meant to be worn while exercising.?
However, if you can do backflips in a saree, you are winning at this game and crushing the ideology that the Indian attire is uncomfortable. As women, we have had qualms about finding a saree a little too complex to carry around, but once you get used to it, you know it's amazingly comfortable.?
Watch this gymnast flawlessly doing backflips... In a saree! You will probably not find your jaw after it drops.?
In the video, the gymnast can be seen working out in an open field. She does three backflips and the last one is showed in slow motion which makes the entire experience very mesmerising.?
If you have the slightest idea about how gymnastics work, you know sarees aren't the ideal outfit for such stunts. However, this young girl proved it all wrong by doing the same so flawlessly.
People took to the comments section to praise the gymnast's perfect talent. One user wrote, 'The act is perfect but I that pride, the smile, the satisfaction on her face, that confidence, after its over- those are the winners!'.?
Another commented, 'Soooooooooooooooooo nice. The saree is eternal, 6 meters of?wonder that has never gone out of fashion - even after colonisation'.
One more user wrote, 'What an awesome lady. The Saree makes even the flips look so elegant. More power to her.'
It should, however, be noted that this gymnast is clearly an expert at what she does. Doing a back-flip is hard enough, never mind adding a saree to the mix. So, unless you have more than enough practice and ample safety precautions, please do not attempt to replicate this at home.
