Everyone's dream is to earn money by working hard and to have a life of luxury.

A woman who lives in a Rs.3crore house in Gurgaon and owns SUVs is not one whom you expect to serve you at a roadside food cart.

Thirty-four-year-old former school teacher Urvashi Yadav has been selling chole-kulche and parantha from a thela (wooden cart).

The sudden shift in occupation happened after her husband met with an accident — second in six years — and doctors advised a hip replacement for him.

After the mishap, Urvashi feared a bleak future for her family and took it upon herself to support it financially.

Earlier she used to supplement the family income by working as a nursery school teacher.

“We may not be financially weak today but I cannot risk the future. Instead of waiting for the situation to get bad, I had to plan something. I realised that I will not save enough money by working as a teacher. Since I love cooking, I thought why not invest in it,” said Urvashi.

Urvashi’s husband Amit Yadav (37) works as an executive with a leading construction company and her father-in-law is a retired Indian Air Force Wing Commander.

A day after the accident, Urvashi, a mother of two, quit her job. Fifteen days later, she put up a food stall under a peepal tree in the Sector 14 market. Urvashi, a graduate who speaks chaste English, had to face resistance from her family for starting the business that does not match up with its status.

“It is indeed a big change for a woman, who lives in AC all the time, to sell food on road. And definitely not easy for my family that owns a Mahindra Scorpio and Hyundai Creta,” Urvashi said.
