Why are ladies required to wear revealing clothes? And why are ladies ready to show their skin (by compulsion, instigation and for money)? Why is that only female skin sells? Why doesn't anybody give a damn if a guy roams around without clothes?

What about females like Preity Zinta and Ash? I'm sure they have enough money. What about rich professional female sports athletes? Why do they oblige when the organizers instruct them to wear tiny dress while playing?

I think this dress is sexy!!!
but what is the meaning of word "sexy" ????? I think its much of a western concept where women dress-up in revealing dresses to project an idea that they available or pickable. The women of lower strata are literally being picked-up; while the women of upper crust actively play the game of being picked & vice-versa picking their mate. But in Indian context, "sexy" is not the concept, atleast I have not seen. Here the focus is more on looking beautiful or attractive to receive compliments; sometimes to look smart so as to feel confident and sometimes just a tinge of sexyness to get the males into flirtatious mode however outright "sexy-in-your-face" attitude just for being picked is not acceptable in India.

Another thing I want to point out is that, Indian middle class has been following fashion without understanding its purpose first. It is okey for western ladies to look sexy while going to a party or a singles bar but it surely doesnot look decent when Indian middle class girls try to look sexy while going shopping, walking on the street during day or waiting at bus stop. So this mini saree do lokk sexy but I hope that this fashion does not catch up with Indian middle class.
It was tried in the 60s and the designer got beaten up and finished in a hospital. This is ultra rubbish. There is only one way to wear a sari that is let it fall to the feet and kiss the ground. There is no other way. So don't mess up with sari unless you want to finish up the same way as the 60's designer.

So what were you doing in the 1960s? Were you born yet? If you were actually around, in India, from the 1960s, then I'm surprised you haven't heard of a state called Maharashtra? My confusion stems from your initial claims of there being only one way to wear the sari.
Since you apparently have access to new fangled things like the internet, however much you may love ladies dresses to not change, I suggest you Google Up the Maharashtrian Sari and also the population of this particular state, since you may imagine it to be a few thousand people in some remote corner.
Coming to your vieled threats of hospitalization etc. some of the leading worthies of Maharashtra are rather good at sending their opponents to hospitals. I'm not threatening you, just clarifying that stupidity, lack of argument and lack of intelligence, is not your monopoly, you have the august company of the Taliban, the Majority Community Extremists, Klu Klux Klanners, Neo Nazis, Khap Panchayats et. al., united in the belief, that when in shortage of ideas, resort to violence.

In general, Indian women from trunk down have HUGE assets. The saree does a very good job of hiding those thunderous thighs and colossal calves.
With a mini saree, these would be exposed and ruin the beauty of our women. On second thoughts, if women were to expose these body parts, they would become 'conscious' of them and start exercising and toning their legs. probably an idea whose time has come!
