Bangalore: Innovations and creations are always applauded but only during the final stages of it; most entrepreneurs are taunted with unnecessary speculations which pull them down from being creative. Some entrepreneurs flinch and some strike during these situations. A rough run-through on history can clearly show us that most business men were affected by the tantrums thrown by the society or public.

Uddhab Bharali is one such entrepreneur, he dropped out of college due to acute poverty and he was termed as useless and lunatic for his uncontrollable desire to invent things. ‘Bad times don’t follow you for a long time’, he can be called as a living example to prove this quote because today he has been shortlisted by NASA for a breakthrough innovation.

Early times

Bharali was born in Assam to a businessmen father; he realized that the family was in a bad condition at the age of four when his father miserably failed in business. This did not stop the young kid’s interests in innovation but it caused more trouble because the family was getting closer to debt and poverty. He saw the worst of times when he reached the primary school. "We had only one cow for the entire family and we had to divide the milk among five people. Sometimes my mother would feed us peanuts with the milk. That was our only food for the whole day” he said.
