  • Since August 2018, when floods destroyed 273 looms in the North Paravur belt of Kerala, mainly in the weaving town of Chendamangalam, life changed completely for the weavers there. That's when journalist, fashion veteran and industry mentor Ramesh Menon set up a crafts revival organisation called Save The Loom.

We also have HT Brunch columnist Vir Sanghvi giving some of the safest travel spots in India at the moment, while Rehana Munir gives a peek into her column about shifting houses. We end with award-winning folk musician Pragnya Wakhlu's original track, Falling.
