Reshma Kadvath’s recent features on Basude Silk Sarees in Narayanpet and Hyderabad’s Sunday Bazaar showcase her dedication to sustainability, handloom crafts and heritage markets.

Reshma Kadvath: A Creator Who Chooses Change Over Collaboration

While social media is overflowing with sponsored posts, creator and upcycling artist Reshma Kadvath stands out for her rare authenticity. She is one of the few influencers who openly refuse monetary collaborations, choosing instead to spotlight people, places and practices that create positive change. Her content revolves around upcycling, sustainability, heritage crafts, handloom artisans and small sellers, voices often lost in the noise of mainstream social media. Reshma’s latest visits to Basude Silk Sarees in Narayanpet and Hyderabad’s iconic Sunday Bazaar (Chor Bazaar) once again reflect her mission: uplifting communities, celebrating craftsmanship and encouraging mindful consumption.

Discovering Basude Silk Sarees in Narayanpet, Telangana

Reshma recently travelled to Narayanpet, a charming town known for its heritage weaves. Inside a warm, traditional home, she found a treasure trove of Narayanpet sarees and handloom suit materials, cotton, silk and everything in between, sourced fresh from the mill.

Reshma shared that she discovered this gem through a reel and ended up buying several handloom cotton suit pieces and a beautiful silk saree for her daughter. And this was not a collaboration, but simply a heartfelt recommendation for saree lovers, handloom enthusiasts and sustainable thinkers.

Hyderabad’s Sunday Bazaar: The City’s Sustainable Treasure Hunt

In another post, Reshma took her followers through the famous Sunday Bazaar, popularly known as Chor Bazaar, near Gulzar Houz, Charminar. Held every Sunday from 6:00 am to 11:00 am, the market is a paradise for lovers of pre-owned goods, antiques and sustainable home décor.

Here, you can find:

• Vintage home décor pieces
• Old household items
• Second-hand electronics
• Footwear and utility items
• Newly made items styled like antiques

Reshma highlighted how buying pre-owned and vintage items is sustainable, eco-friendly and kinder to the planet. She picked up three stunning antique pieces, with the Swan Paandaan being her personal favourite.

While most vendors do not have an online presence, she shared one contact, Mr Taj, who runs @nizams_art_gallery, helping antique lovers connect with at least one reliable seller from the market.

A Creator With Purpose: Why Reshma’s Work Stands Out

Reshma’s content is not about products. It’s about people and impact.

She uses her voice to:

• Promote sustainability
• Support artisans and small sellers
• Celebrate India’s craft and cultural heritage
• Encourage mindful, responsible buying
• Highlight the value in restoration and upcycling

Her posts are not driven by profit; they’re driven by passion and responsibility. In an era of fast content, she chooses slow stories. Stories rooted in community, culture and conscious living.
