[nidokidos] Get Inspired......... Hats Off To This Lady

 


 

Get Inspired......... Hats Off To This Lady
 
 


From 50 paise, she now earns Rs 200,000 a day.
She started her career 31 years ago as an
entrepreneur, selling eateries from a mobile cart on
the Marina beach amidst all odds -- battling a
failed marriage, coping with her husband, a multiple
addict, and taking care of two kids.
Today, she has overcome the hurdles and owns a
chain of restaurants.

She married against the will of her parents.
Unfortunately, the marriage failed but her parents
never forgave her and she was on her own along
with 2 children.

" I knew I should either succumb to the burden or
fight; I decided to fight my lonely battle." she said.
She started selling pickles, squashes and jams she
made at home.

Eventually she started her own cart on Marine
Drive, Mumbai. 
 
On the first she just sold one cup of
coffee, making 50 paise the first day. 
 
But she never
lost hope and earned as high as 25,000 rs a day.
One day the Slum Clearance Board gave her an
offer to run the canteen at their office with a proper
kitchen. 
 
The chairman met her during her morning
walk. 
 
It was a huge success. Thereafter, she never
looked back.

She suffered the second shock of her life in 2004
when she lost her daughter and son-in-law in a
road accident. 
 
The ambulance refused to carry their
dead bodies. 
 
Finally, somebody carried all the dead
bodies in the boot of a car. 
 
She couldn't bear the
scene and broke down. 
 
That is when she decided
to keep an ambulance on that very spot to help
people whether the victims are alive or dead. 
 
It is in memory of her daughter.

Today Patricia along with her son runs the chain of
restaurant 'Sandeepha' in her daughter's memory
and around 200 people work under her.

She was awarded 'Ficci entrepreneur of the year' in 2010.
