A Bold Food Entrepreneur Who Broke All Societal Restrictions – Urvashi’s Chole Kulche Cart

Most entrepreneurial success stories come from a goal-focused rise to eminence. But this episode of success stories is all about taking the bravest decision possible at the time of crisis and marching ahead toward the entrepreneurial goals with complete determination. Urvashi Yadav is one such incredible example. A brilliant food entrepreneur, Yadav is a shining example of how one can turn an unanticipated tragedy into a genius entrepreneurial initiative. Let’s look at Yadav’s inspiring food entrepreneurial journey. What led to Urvashi’s Chole Kulche Cart? Yadav hailed from an upper middle-class family – well-educated and employed as a teacher. Her family included her husband, children and in-laws, and all of them lived quite comfortably, complete with all the indicators of a luxurious life, such as a spacious home and an SUV. Yet, tragedy struck the family suddenly when her husband met with an accident and could not work anymore. Yadav was a teacher then, but she quickly realized that the income from her then job would hardly be enough for the family to continue their then lifestyle. She understood that she had to then take strong financial decisions on behalf of the family. Yadav had two options – cut back on their expenses and adopt a lifestyle that fit within her limited income or make a drastic change in her earnings so she could manage her family’s requirements with


ease. She chose the latter option and decided to take a step into the world of entrepreneurship. But the next question was huge – what entrepreneurial capabilities did she have? What initiative could she start with confidence? Yadav trusted her amazing culinary skills and opened a Chole and Kulcha cart. Initial struggles An educated woman with a successful job, a spacious home, and an SUV standing at the roadside and selling food from a food cart was unthinkable for her loved ones. Everyone in her family was aghast at this suggestion. But Yadav soon convinced them and ignored the hollow words of discouragement from around her and got started. Her sheer determination to make extra income for her family often overcame the sweat and heat of the roads as she toiled away cooking for hours on end. This was a tough decision because she was not driven by poverty or any financial burden when she opened her food cart, but it was her goal to give her family a safe future that drove her to take up this entrepreneurial initiative that seemed damaging to her social status. The incredible success story Despite discouragement from many loved ones around her, Yadav soon saw incredible entrepreneurial success with this move, easily making thousands of Rupees every day. Her food cart has now transformed into a restaurant – a smart and clean food joint serving yummy and hygienic food. She has also gained a license for her first food truck. Her smart and clean approach to making the food she loves, her pleasant demeanor, her English-speaking first impression, and the yummy food soon made headlines, with bloggers and social media lovers making her food entrepreneurial venture a huge success. Precious lessons from this success story Yadav converted her ability to make yummy “ghar ka khaana” into a super successful entrepreneurial initiative. Yadav could have chosen to play it safe, when she was faced with a dilemma; however, she bravely took a risk, without fearing societal opinions. This capability of taking brave decisions for the sake of her family is one of the best capabilities any entrepreneur can ever possess. Her rise to fame owes a lot to the bloggers and other social media lovers who spread her story far and wide online. This ability to leverage all scope for marketing is another contributor to entrepreneurial success. Yadav’s complete focus on her goals made her understand and overcome all her challenges with confidence.
