Lately, the good ol’ ripped jeans have been in news for all the wrong reasons. Be it ranting prime time debates or so-called ‘discussions’ on social media platforms, suddenly the jeans became a major talking point in the country.

Gul Panag, Sona Mohpatra, Navya Naveli Nanda and Shruti Seth were some of the celebrities who joined the digital furor by proudly showing-off their torn jeans.
