Khadi – a simple hand-woven cloth managed to give a newfound identity to an entire nation. It was not just a piece of cloth, but the reflection of the calm yet fiery spirit of Indian masses. Khadi narrates the story of India’s decade-long freedom struggle, her journey towards self-governance and her journey towards liberation.
Several images come to mind when one thinks about India’s national struggle. Sometimes, it is the agitated masses who are dressed in white kurta and dhoti with "Gandhi caps," fighting for their independence. Other times, it is the English babus, dressed in their boots and coats. It is the eternal slogans of revolutionary leaders one moment, and Gandhi's peaceful satyagraha the next.
