I think they are called Lenghas not ghararas.

I have an old pic of me in it.
The only difference is that the belt is made of some chamkeela banarsi kapra which is attached to the flair of the lengha

argh okay hard to explain

Gharara is with two legs and flare at the knee, rajhistani lehnga is a lehnga with a dividing line at the knee and flare below it so its a like a gharara but with one leg/skirt...
Here are some rajhistani lehngas:

A rajhistani ghagra is what the banjaras in rajhistan and sind wear. Its basically cotton chunri/bandhani,/bandhej (AKA tie dye with small dots in red, yellow, orange, indigo and black) or is a brightly colored cotton with applique (phool patti/ rilli work) in contrast colors and mirror work or large silver and gold discs.
It is a full skirt with lots of gathers at the waist. The difference between a ghagra and a lehnga is that a lehnga is A lined in shape mostly cut on bias (oraib) and a ghagra is full from the waist and is cut on a straight grain... let me see perhaps i can find some pics

And if you go to the following site the fourth image in the slide show (model standing on a rock) a green and red outfit is a good example of a rajhistani ghagra

I was intruiged by how few images and links i could find online!
