Shah Rukh Khan is known as King Khan for a reason. Apart from his charisma on and off-screen, his effortless and classic style never fails to impress us all. Lately, his stylish affair with printed shirts has been making us go gaga over him. We got a clear glimpse of this in his recently released song ‘Chaleya’ from his highly-anticipated film ‘Jawan’.

But that’s not all. Previously, his stylish stint with quirky shirts in the film ‘Pathaan’ made us go head over heels. While the film may have given Bollywood its comeback in cinemas, it also boosted the Kashmiri handicrafts and textile industry.

Ask us how? Well, Shah Rukh Khan donned a paisley green printed shirt in the song ‘Besharam Rang’ which had the internet buzzing with searches of the shirt everywhere. Now, the iconic shirt is being sold online.

The Indian couturier further explained the inspiration behind the iconic shirt. It is from the fern-laden lands of Kashmir. The paisley print design and handwork are the signature of the Kashmiri indigenous art form called ‘Kani’, inspired by the flora and fauna of the region. Traditionally found on shawls, this art form has now slowly found its way to shirts, suits and other clothing items.

Originating from the Kanihama region of Jammu and Kashmir, this intricate weaving is done by artisans using fine wooden needles. Considered to be one of the oldest handicrafts of Kashmir, it has been a part of traditions since Mughal times.

The new interest in the green shirt and its history has revived the age-old handicraft and provided an impetus to the languishing art form.
