I’m proud to see the legacy that my grandfather( Late Mr Ghulam Mohammad Kanihama ) left behind through his passion for preserving this beautiful craft. Watching this video has filled me with a sense of pride and gratitude, knowing that my late grandfather’s hard work and dedication have helped to keep this art form alive. I hope that this video will inspire others to take an interest in Kanishawl and the many other traditional crafts that are in danger of being lost.

सही कहा, भारत के कलाकारों का कोई जवाब नहीं है।ये कशीदाकारी करने में मेहनत बहुत ही ज्यादा होती हैं,हाथ से बनाई जाती हैं इसलिए उसका मूल्य भी बढ़ता है।जो अमीर पर्यटक कश्मीर जाते हैं वे अवश्य खरीद सकते हैं। वहां के कलाकारों की रोजी-रोटी की उपलब्धि होगी साथ ही कलाकारों की कदर।
