After being selected for college, I faced a huge financial challenge, even though I got a 90% scholarship. The total cost for two years was ₹6,89,000, and I had to pay ₹1,00,000 within a week to confirm my admission, which seemed impossible for me. I knew I had to secure the admission, but the fee was a big problem. I had applied for an education loan, but it wouldn’t come in time, and I needed ₹1,00,000 immediately. I was very worried, but then I came up with an idea. Instead of public funding, I decided to ask for help from people I trusted. I made a list of 50 people who were connected to me through my love of books and wrote a detailed post explaining my situation. I sent messages to 35 people first, and 32 of them quickly sent money. After a few days, my school teachers gave me ₹45,000. In just four days, I collected ₹3,50,000. It felt like I had come back from the edge. I paid ₹1,33,600 to confirm my admission. Now, I still had to pay ₹5,55,400. For this year, I neede...

काही वर्षांपूर्वी युट्यूबवर 'सुपरमॅन ऑफ मालेगाव' ही डॉक्युमेंटरी पहिल्यांदा पाहिली होती नि आजपर्यंत किती वेळा पाहिली याचा हिशोबच नाही. आज पुन्हा एकदा पाहिली नि ठरवलं की या वर काहीतरी लिहावं, जेणेकरून ज्यांनी पाहिली नसेल त्यांना या डॉक्युमेंटरीबद्दल माहिती होईल...😊 'मालेगाव का सुपरमॅन' या खानदेशी चित्रपटाच्या निर्मिती प्रक्रियेवर, नि एकूणच खानदेशातील लोकांच्या चित्रपट बघण्याच्या व बनवण्याच्या असलेल्या अप्रतिम पॅशनवर आधारित ही डॉक्युमेंटरी आहे. कोणत्याही सुविधा नसताना, धार्मिक कट्टरता नि बेरोजगारीचा सामना करत, कुटुंबाची जबाबदारी पेलत, खानदेशवासी फक्त चित्रपट पाहत नाहीत, तर जुगाड करत चित्रपट कसे बनवतात हे पाहणं एक अद्भुत अनुभव आहे. त्यांची चित्रपट बनवण्याची जिद्द आणि पॅशन खूपच प्रेरणादायी आणि कौतुकास्पद आहे. खूपच कमी संसाधनांचा वापर करून, आपल्या स्थानिक बोली भाषेत सुंदर सामाजिक संदेश देणारा चित्रपट कसा बनवावा, हे यांच्याकडून शिकायला हवं. मालेगावमध्ये लोकांचा चित्रपट पाहण्याचा उत्साह जसा जोरात आहे, त्यापेक्षा चित्रपट बनवण्याचा उत्साह अनेक पटींनी अधिक आहे. हे...

From a young age, I wanted to learn a lot and become very educated, just like Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar. After finishing high school, I planned to prepare for the Civil Services Exam (UPSC) and decided to move to Pune. The idea was to study at a good college in Pune while also attending classes to prepare for UPSC. Choosing to study for a degree while preparing for UPSC was the best decision I made...! I went to Pune, checked out colleges and classes, and got admitted to the 'Foundation Course' at Chanakya Mandal classes. But due to some issues, I had to leave Pune. Something happened there that upset me a lot, and I didn't want to stay in Pune anymore. It was my first time there, and without knowing anyone, I didn’t know what to do next. So, I spent all the money I had on buying books at 'ABC' Chowk and returned home. Back at home, I decided to study on my own. I wanted to prove that you can study well even in a village. I believe that if you have the willpower an...
