Why have Indian girls almost stopped wearing sarees?

Surprisingly, not all Indian women have stopped wearing sarees. Sarees are still worn by a lot of Indian females at workplaces like by school teachers, college lectures, bankers and so on.

No doubt ghaghra choli or lehangas aren't as common now. They are worn only on special occasions like weddings, festivals and some religious events.

The cultural upbringing or the restrictions by family don't allow them to wear western dresses.

What is it like to have an insanely beautiful girlfriend?

In most other countries women are no longer wearing the traditional outfits. Even if they do, it's only on specific or special occasions. You won't find Japanese women wearing Kimono to work or a European woman wearing the traditional frock to her office.

Some are hesitant to try the western dresses (mostly older age groups).

They themselves find sarees and salwar suits more comfortable than western clothing. Wearing jeans and top in hot and humid weather can be torturous. A cotton saree or cotton salwar suit is more comfortable.

Oh! I am sorry the question asked why Indian women have stopped wearing sarees and my answer is telling that why Indian women are still wearing the traditional dresses.

Well, for me it's more surprising that Indian women are still wearing the traditional dresses rather than why some have stopped wearing them altogether.

The reason why Indian women are still wearing sarees and salwar kameez is that

There was this one weird Bollywood movie that was released in the 2000s. Amitabh Bachchan was starring with another actress and the story was about how the old guy (Amitabh Bachchan) fell in love with the young woman. What is the name of this movie?

Wearing of traditional dresses till date by Indian women is surprising for two reasons for me.

Indian men like men in other parts of world rarely wear traditional attires on daily basis. Kurta pajama is worn either as night wear or again on specific occasions. So it's women only who are still wearing the traditional dresses.

Saree is still worn on a normal routine day by many Indian women. There are then those Indian women who drape sarees only on special occasions like weddings and religious festivals and ceremonies.

My grandmother deeded me her house before she passed last year. Her son still lives there refusing to move. What steps should I take to have him removed?

That's me wearing an Indian outfit for a movie. Maybe my grandchildren or great grandchildren would be surprised that we wore traditional clothes for such outings or as on office wear.

Indian women want an elaborate wardrobe and are not ready to do away with their traditional dresses. They love their options.

Another surprising fact is that salwar kameez or Punjab suits are also still worn by a lot of Indian women on almost daily basis.
