Parul Arora doesn't let her saree come in the way of her stunts. The national gold medal-winning gymnast has perfected the art of performing backflips while wearing a saree. In fact, she makes it look positively easy as she effortlessly pulls off cartwheels and flips with the six yard garment tucked around her.
After wowing social media with a clip that shows her doing front flips in a blue saree, the gymnast from Haryana is going viral again. This time, it is for a video that shows Parul Arora performing three flips while wearing a purple saree.
The video was first shared by Ms Arora on Instagram last month. "Saree m khatrnak stunt (Dangerous stunt in a saree)," she wrote while posting the clip on the photo and video sharing platform, where she has a following of over 1 lakh.
It came under the spotlight again Twitter user Aparna Jain shared it on the microblogging platform on Thursday. "When a gymnast does flips in a saree. Watched it thrice just to see how the saree defied gravity," she wrote.
