AirBnB founder Brian Chesky’s Indian connection

The festival of lights may be done but the hangover continues, as does the occasional social media update. The latest one showed up on AirBnB founder Brian Chesky’s Instagram.

Chesky recently shared a picture, dressed up in black kurta with zari detailing. It was gifted to him by the mother of his Indian-American girlfriend, Elissa Patel. Thanking Patel’s mom for the “awesome kurta”, Chesky shared Diwali wishes for all.

 

Thank you Elissa's mom for this awesome Kurta. Happy Diwali everyone!

With the year-round festivities that India is known for, it shouldn’t be a surprise if the young founder is spotted in the traditional garb more often.
