Jewellery is originally made to make women appear beautiful and feel confident in themselves and also act as a sure guarantee of saving the family during hard times. But lately, the kind of craze that is seen is quite disturbing. People with a little extra money to spare, even the poorest of ones, will flock the jewellery shops to buy gold during Akshay Trittiya, a day which has now become an important event for many. Celebrations of Akshay trittiya are originally meant for something else but is now limited to buying gold, diamonds, and thus helping rocket the prices of gold through the roof!
@Rambabu, true...men are not lagging behind in terms of wearing gold. You should see several politicians in Maharashtra wearing kilos and kilos of gold! :blink: :blink: Flaunting it boldly all at the expenses of the commoners.

In my society men also wear a lot of jewels, women too, it is simple, people love to wear it because it enahnces beauty of person who holds it.
Men wearing jewelry is not new. It dates back to mythological ages. Rama wears jewelry. It's no less than Sita's Jewelry.
Now man only wear one or two Jewell. This is very less as compare to women in modern era.....
Less or more that's immaterial. The fact is men too are not lagging behind women in wearing gold ornaments. Didn't you see men wearing 10 rings for 10 fingers? See above a Video link given by Kalyani on a political leader who wears a shirt made of gold worth Rs1..5 crores.
