The #SareeTwitter trend, which began earlier this week, has inspired celebrities and politicians to share their favourite saree pics online. A Twitter user went down memory lane and dug up an old video, and everyone seems to agree that it has 'won' the viral trend.
The black-and-white video, from a 1975 Test series between India and West Indies, shows a woman running onto the pitch in the middle of a game. Deftly sprinting in the saree, she dodges police personnel and ground staff, runs right up to cricketer Brijesh Patel and plants a kiss on his cheek! The incident occurred right after the then-23-year-old cricketer had scored a half century.
Watch the video below:

Several Twitter users also commented on how the woman managed to run around in a saree, not letting the six yards hamper her movement.
Amazing! I can never imagaine running in saree so fast!

Women who can run at that speed in a saree are on another level of athleticism.
