Another
thing is Dhaniakhali handloom saris are not so much costly, a simple Dhaniakhali
sari costs as Rs. 100 only in market but the weaver gets only Rs. 50 after
working two days (10–12 hours each day), to weave the sari. Another most exotic
types of saris take four to five days to weave but the weavers gets only Rs.
450, and is sold at market in the prise Rs. 800. From this it is clear that the
sellers getting maximum of profit where as wavers are not so much benefited
after doing very hard labour. This is the reason, now many weavers are diverted
their attention on doing some another types of work for maintaining a good
lifestyle. But still there are some weavers are present those are wavering
saris only to maintain their culture and tradition of sari making.
