Mother's ₹81 Mumbai Journey: From Hardship to Pride

Pooja Chopra's mother, Neera, shared a harrowing account of escaping family pressure after the birth of her second daughter. She left her marital home with a 21-day-old baby and a seven-year-old daughter, carrying only ₹81 and having traveled without a ticket to Mumbai. Neera's determination led her to seek employment at a five-star hotel, where her honesty in observing its disrepair impressed Mrs. Mona Chawla, who offered her a job.

Despite earning a meager ₹900 monthly, Neera persevered for six years before securing a better position in Goa. She expressed profound pride in her daughters, stating she would wish for them in every rebirth. Neera recalled her promise to her family that her younger daughter would make her proud, a prophecy fulfilled by Pooja Chopra's success.
