Rani Pink Ghatchola Bandhani Zari Georgette Saree

A rani pink georgette Ghatchola saree in real Bandhani, cut 6.5 metres including a yellow blouse piece. Zari lines cross the deep pink body into a checked grid, with a yellow Bandhani dot tied into each square. The dots are tie-dyed by hand — you can see the fabric still crushed around each knot where the dye couldn't reach.

The border is the heaviest in this group: a wide woven zari band of floral and paisley motifs running along the lower edge, repeated on the yellow blouse piece.

Rani pink is the colour Ghatchola is best known in across Rajasthan — the one you picture when someone names the style. If you want the traditional version rather than a softer modern take, this is it, and the weight of the zari makes it the dressiest of the set.

What you're getting

• Fabric: Georgette
• Colour: Rani pink with gold zari, and a yellow blouse piece
• Craft: Ghatchola, with zari checks, real tie-dyed Bandhani and a woven zari border
• Blouse: Yellow blouse fabric with zari work, included in the 6.5 metres
• Length: 6.5 metres, including blouse fabric

Where to wear it

Weddings as a guest, sangeet and mehendi functions, pujas, festive occasions and family celebrations.

How to style it

Gold jewellery matches the zari; kundan or polki suits the weight of the border. The yellow blouse piece is the contrast the saree is built around — pink on pink would flatten it.

Caring for it

Dry clean only. Zari needs gentle handling: steam iron on low heat, avoid pressing directly over the zari, and store the saree folded in a muslin cover away from direct sunlight.

Please note: slight colour variation from the images is possible due to camera settings and lighting. Returns and exchanges are not accepted on this ground.

Frequently asked questions

Is this real Bandhani or a Bandhani print?
Real Bandhani. The dots are tie-dyed — small sections of fabric are tied off by hand before dyeing, so the colour cannot reach them. This is not a printed imitation.

How can I tell real Bandhani from a print?
Tie-dyed Bandhani leaves the fabric crushed and puckered around each knot, and the dots vary slightly in size and shape. A print is flat and perfectly uniform. On this saree you can see and feel the texture where every dot was tied.

What is a Ghatchola saree?
Ghatchola is a traditional Rajasthani style in which zari lines divide the fabric into a grid of squares, with a motif set inside each one. It's worn at weddings and festive occasions across Rajasthan and Gujarat.

What fabric is this saree made of?
Georgette, which is light with a soft, flowing drape. It is not a silk or a silk blend.

What is zari?
Zari is metallic thread. Here it forms the checked grid across the body, the wide woven border, and the work on the yellow blouse piece.

Does this saree come with a blouse?
Yes. A yellow blouse piece with zari work is included in the 6.5 metre length. It needs to be stitched to your measurements; a stitched blouse is not included.

What is the length of this saree?
6.5 metres in total, including the blouse fabric.

Why do the Bandhani dots vary slightly?
Because each one is tied by hand. Small variations in size, shape and depth of colour are the signature of the craft, not a defect — a perfectly even pattern would mean it was printed.

Can I wear this saree to a wedding?
Yes. Ghatchola is traditionally a wedding and festive saree, and rani pink with a heavy zari border is the dressiest version of it.

What jewellery goes with it?
Gold to match the zari, or kundan and polki for weddings.

How do I care for a Bandhani zari saree?
Dry clean only. Steam iron on low heat, avoid pressing over the zari, and store it folded in a muslin cover.

How long will delivery take, and is COD available?
Orders are dispatched within 1–2 business days and delivered across India in 3–7 business days. Prepaid orders ship free. Cash on Delivery is available with a nominal handling charge of ₹59.

Can I return or exchange this saree?
You must raise a return or exchange within 48 hours of delivery. Returns are accepted for damaged or defective products, with images shared. You can also exchange the saree if it isn't right for you, as long as it's unused, with tags, packaging and invoice intact. Slight colour variation due to screen and lighting isn't grounds for a return.
