    i had never given the color of Amma’s saree thought ..it was always Amma who stole the limelight in my eyes ..every saree just looked beautiful because Amma was wearing it! But yes in Tokyo when i saw Amma in a blood red saree and big red pottu i was awestruck completely.. it was like seeing Her Kali form in complete radiance. unknowingly i shouted Amma Kali in glee!! so yes! Red must be my favourite Devi bhava saree.
