TOP 6 THINGS FASHION INDUSTRY CAN LEARN FROM SACRED GAMES (ON NETFLIX)

People are going crazy watching season 2 of SACRED GAMES (first Indian original series) on Netflix. With an amazing plot with some brain exploding dialogues, it has become the most viewed and loved series of this year. Being from the fashion field, I twisted some reel seems into real-life lessons that one can actually think and learn over it. Let us see how it worked for us:

‘Kabhi kabhi to lagta hai apun hi bhagwan hai’ – Nawazuddin Siddiqui (From Sacred Games Season 1)


Grab the opportunity


Fashion changes rapidly if you are not on your toes you better be running for it soon. Sitting and waiting for a godfather to come and give you an opportunity will never happen. You have to take a chance and grab the offer you want. Gaitonde’s (Nawazudin Siddhiqui) character grabbed the single moment in which he finds his boss alone in a river, even though his only friend Mathu has abandoned the plan and when others things have failed.


Make your mark
















Ganesh Gaitonde dies at the end of the first episode but before blowing out his own brain, he tells Sartaj (Saif Ali Khan), “Ashwathama hai apun, kabhi nahi marega.”

Every day, a new trend is being envisioned and new boundaries are broken in this industry. Your work must create a huge positive impact on people that they remember your name even if you leave that particular firm.

Be a risk taker

Gaitonde often said: ‘Kabhi kabhi to lagta hai apun hi bhagwan hai’. He loved to believe in himself. a small line but a strong point. Basically, in fashion industry nobody has the time to train anybody. You have to be your own unless you have big contacts. So simple mantra, when nobody believes in you have to follow and do what is correct. Take risk to create your niche and the world be yours.


Choose quality over quantity















When Katekar, is pressured to investigate the disappearance of a young man from a Muslim slum. Katekar dies in this episode, and Sartaj ends up killing Katekar’s murderer. Katekar is then cremated, and Sartaj kills his old self turning into somebody new.

This episode reminds that to sustain for long in the market, you have to bring quality change and create new stuff for future. Every season demands some innovation and freshness.  

Never stop trying

When Gaitonde proclaims that one day Kukoo will be his, everyone thinks he is just being too ambitious. He is not even allowed to enter the club where Isa’s men and Kukoo meet every night. Gaitonde never stopped because of his present, he did overcome and made his future. I believe this same kind of spirit should be there in every fashionista as the sky is the limit.


Brain over money

In a world run by guns and muscle power, he stares right back at the monster with courage– that, right there, is when he wins over the town. Ganesh Gaitonde becomes the undisputed god of Mumbai’s underbelly. Not with power, but with sheer courage. Same goes with the people who are creative but have no money to start with. Guys, justgenerate the idea and explode it in fashion (only field who welcomes everything).



I am sure after reading this you will bendto agree with me at some point. The above is just a small fun read to storm your brain a little. Let us know if you have any thought to share
