We have a wide range of weaves from across the length and breadth of the country, different styles, embroideries and so on. So what I'm going to do is I'm going to pose a question. Five have questions. So these will not be questions. Essentially, it will just be some music, which is the folk music from that area, and a picture

Okay. I am by the song. It sounds Punjabi, so I think because it has, like, food kind of embroidery. So I'm thinking, I'm guessing this is fulkari
