24 I don't know the number but yes it is lessons to learn and the second one is

about SRI ramanuja wow that's interesting do you love maths

no I hate I don't like it so uh if I'm not strong ramanujan is a

mathematician

I'm also not sure about it

yes he is a mathematician who lived during the British school

so yeah I mean you can get to know about his life and everything I believe from

the book yes you know I don't think there's any

harm in knowing about the person's life although his life was all about maths

what do you think yes I like story so his life would be

like a new awesome story to me definitely definitely

all right ahavisha so have you gone through the session document

yes ma'am so the topic today is

fashion fashion right so should we begin with

the topic of course ma'am all right so uh what does the word

fashion mean to you what is the meaning I think fashion means to have a to just

um to have a not an ordinary way of dress or something a stylish way of

dressing or something else okay all right so what what would be

old-fashioned then

old-fashion would be that in olden days how would people have a dressing

yeah the kind of people addressing people had in olden times and when we

dress up like that today then it is called like old-fashioned or

outdated right so fashion you can say is a popular or latest style of clothing

hair decorations it could be anything okay it doesn't necessarily have to be

only in terms of clothes okay so uh that is Passion all right very good so

um what kind of fashion or what kind of

style do you like personally I don't I will live in a simple life

okay so I think you uh even when you say

simple it's simple lifestyle so the word style simple passion sense also comes in

there okay that is also fashion you can get you can't get rid of this word all

right so I mean I I know that people use this term mostly in this fancy terms but

it is not necessarily fancy it can be otherwise as well okay

look is that clear all right so uh do you think being fashionable is important

depends some people some people maybe some people have a

um like some celebrities they for them fashion is important but for normal

people General Society um it's their choice of the light

fashion it'll be important for them but if they don't like fashion it will not

be important for them

okay all right so what about you you don't care about fashion

no I don't like modern passion I like olden days passion

okay and when you say olden days what does it exactly mean

traditional dresses okay

all right so you don't like to wear like a mini skirt or something

no I like simple I love to wear lehenga chunna Which is popular in Rajasthan

but yes but yes um my mother has some language and sorry

today I had a discussion with her and she told okay I'm tall enough and I can

and I can have a go with her langa but I can't wear her choli

okay okay all right so now you're waiting when you would be big enough to

wear a choli as well yes but I think I'll just have a walk

with thread and needle and Stitch It Off if you know stitching no that's what

that's just I was about to speak I was about to say and I'll just have a go and

inside this to have a look I don't know what I do

but I'll just roam around okay all right all right okay so you

don't like to stay up to date with all the fashion trends

no I don't like to okay all right so uh how did you come to

this conclusion that you like traditional clothes or you don't like

you know the updated fashion sense and everything is there someone who guides

you or you decide that for yourself ma'am it's my nature and I have

atmosphere like that mom like I feel a bit awkward if you have half sleeves

like this I feel awkward like oh why is my body parts visible to other virtual

that's my personal so why should I wear half sleeves like that

it'll be there so it you you don't feel confident

when you um comfortable right you don't feel

comfortable I just feel awkward yeah

that's what if you're awkward which means you're not comfortable with

wearing that right yes I feel out of the water

yeah exactly exactly so that's how you do so

um that feeling comes okay when you go to buy clothes okay when you go for

shopping do you choose the dresses and tops and everything for yourself or your

mother does My Mother Does she just choose the

dresses on on auspicious occasions the dresses okay

she chooses she chooses the dresses on for for auspicious occasions but I

choose the dresses for normal days and what do I usually wear yes I only wear

um a T-shirt and lagging that's all my choice I don't need anything else

all right okay and what about these traditional clothes that you like

uh yeah I don't have I don't I they're not available they're not available in

the mall I see only these two things running up I can't see any lehenga

chunna because in Rajasthan

so right

do you shop online no

I think you can shop online and there you'll get all these collections that

you don't get in Bangalore yeah

yes but now in more modern times we'll get dresses we will get dresses but

they'll be a bit different in Rajasthan you know recently or I think some years

ago I don't know when but yes we bought a dress a language from Rajasthan and a

language from Bangalore same but but it was different so the language from

Rajasthan or from my native Place Jaipur it was more beautiful and it had um it

was like Gujarati traditional for Daniel it is Idol all right yeah useful offers

very beautiful dress and download will be something something even though it's

language but it will it will be a little bit fashionable more unfashionable it'll

have something like I don't know what to call them traditional in that sense yes

okay all right makes sense so can you tell me Abisha who's your favorite

actress actress

um I don't like move I don't like movies I

don't have any favorite actor actress okay but still there would be

someone who's maybe dress or something you might admire or something in maybe

some occasion no mama don't admire anyone's dress

okay what do you watch do you watch anything at all

hardly okay all right so basically this

question was with celebrity as the best passion sense and the worst according to

you so okay you don't really watch Bollywood so Hollywood or anything else

that you watched so you could answer this question

no okay all right so let's skip this

do you think spending money on fashion is worth it

um sometimes sometimes if you are going outdoors and we have a special place to

attend then we have to choose fashion otherwise

we will look awkward little more it will not be the impression and sometimes when

it's nothing we are not going out it's nothing that is home and we wear

and we buy things which are not comfortable but still we where we feel

out of the water while wearing them but we've still wear them for just to

express no no just to impress or something like that too for others to

say that you're looking good we don't really like that but still for others to

say that you're looking good we wear it that you can see it's wasted of money

right you should spend it for yourself not because others will like it or

something right no do you like Mom are you man do you do you like modern

fashion or what kind of fashion do you like

yeah I mean I like it I would say I like all kinds of fashion and I believe in

dressing according to the occasion so if it's some you know

um wedding I'm going to I would like to try you know dress up traditionally in

you know gown or a language or you know suit or something and if it's some party

I might want to wear a dress you know or a jumpsuit or something if it's very

casual like in their jeans and you know top or something so you know

it's like dress according to uh you know the occasion

and that's where everything so yeah that's my

but now what kind of dress do you love the most wearing what kind of dress you

love the most among all these occasions I don't know I mean

um see I don't know if if you would relate

to this or not but sometimes some dresses which you couldn't wear

but you really wanted to that becomes your favorite dress right if you want to

wear like like in case in your case you wanted to wear the lehenga choli but you

weren't big enough to wear it so then that thing kept growing right that want

or that you know thing for uh you to Bear it so now when you're able to wear

but if you wanted to wear it and you got it so you would then that specialty or

that you know that that thing would have not been there right so when you wait

and then finally wear it becomes more special for you right

so uh like I have gone mostly everything but I don't know somewhere my parents

didn't really allow me to wear dresses in general

okay Ian uh do you understand what is a dress like a frock sort of a thing

oh yes yeah so I used to wear frocks as a child but after I grew up I I never

wore but recently I've started wearing so that is something I always wanted to

when I was not able to so now I'm able to wear it so I like it

so yeah what were you saying

nah I wasn't saying nothing I was saying nothing

okay all right so yeah that's my favorite dress all right but again

fashion is not just about dressing it's about hair it's about shoes it's about

makeup it's about everything basically even Behavior you know so everything

falls under fashion all right so

um all right which passion Trends do you like

foreign

as I already I think ah which when I say fashion trends you know

uh it keeps coming and going see Trends get outdated and then give new ones and

all that you know let's talk about specs okay do you have specs no

no I don't know all right but if you uh have noticed among your friends or

someone you know earlier you used to have you know a half same thing then

this full frame started coming in now it's like wide frame nah and then it

says metallic frame so things keep coming and going and now this is

outdated but this was a trend Once Upon a Time you know this one which I'm

wearing okay so remember that's a fashion trend that I'm talking of so

although right now the most trending one is the white frame okay instead of black

it would be white okay so that's the trend but personally I don't like that I

feel like it won't suit me so I am still on the you know older one

so uh that is the kind of trend I was talking about so this is just in uh you

know example as an example of the specs but otherwise also you have these Trends

and all okay with jeans and tops and all that okay well uh yeah I think with that

we can end the session time is almost up so anything else you want to ask or say

before we end

yes ma'am man do you like do you like having long hairs or short hairs

so I love long hair which is why I have long hair but I've had it for like years

now so I'm planning to cut it short oh so are you happy or you're a bit sad

with that no no it's a personal decision that I'm making I mean it will grow long

again right so I need a change ma'am what is your pet peeve

what is your pet peeve what is that

a thing that annoys you most okay

um I don't know I mean I'm not able to recall anything as such as of now you

know again it's it it depends I would say in different

situations so but what
