Seematti – An Exclusive Interview with Beena Kannan

1.Why go to shop for sarees at Seematti? Ans: It is extremely easy to answer this question. All you have to do is to check out every saree store you know and then, step into Seematti. You'll know the difference. 2. How is a Saree different from other wedding attires? Ans: The most obvious difference is that saree is unstitched cloth and the other bridals are tailored and finished.
