There is a 'homogenizing trend' in India today,in terms of 'popular' culture,brides wear lehanga/cholis and grooms wear achkan/sherwanis all over India,a knee long achkan/sherwani with buttoned up high collar made out of thick clothing(if not wool)looks so out of place in a 'tropical'clime that is India in summers at least, it is truly a wonder that how this 'garment' came to be de rigeur in weddings even in South India,especially in receptions.Just like salwar kameez has 'colonised' a whole generation of probably 'all' women in India,similarly male dressing too has been 'standardised'.This has surely helped garment manufacturers who can now manufacture them on large scale,knowing they have a 'pan' India market.
