One user said, "I'm pretty sure my grandmother had a very similar saree in 1970s which didn't cost her a kidney."
 

 
 

Another posted, "Its giving me Sridevi from English Vinglish vibes."
 
A third user wrote, "sabyasachi x h&m is so embarrassing ain’t no way it’s gonna cost $70 to look like an Indian bus driver."
 
Someone commented, "That's a cotton printed saree and almost every Bengali woman used to have at least half a dozen. They turn wonderfully soft with every wash, and later used to be stitched in kanthas or used as kitchen wipes."
 
A tweet read, "My grandma has same saree of 400 rs." Yet another added, "I m sure the slippers may even need 3-4 litres of blood donation at least."
