The lungi, also known as a sarong or dhoti , is a garment worn around the waist in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Myanmar (formerly Burma), Brunei, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, the Horn of Africa and the southern Arabian Peninsula . It is particularly popular in regions where the heat and humidity create an unpleasant climate for trousers.
In Pakistan, the lungi is almost a traditional thing especially in the Punjab.
Lungis are worn all throughout the Punjab mostly during night time in the villages of Punjab where due to the hot weather men wear lungis and sleep on Charpoys. For men it can also be classed as something worn at home during the evening.
Lungis are also popular amongst women where many bear a certain type of embroidery or pattern.
Lungis are also very popular in the province of Sindh among both, men and women
