From maid to bestselling author

Baby Haldar ran away from an abusive marriage, came to Delhi to make a new beginning and started working as a maid to support her three children.

One of her employers was Professor Prabodh Kumar, the grandson of Prem Chand, who encouraged her to write her life story. He also helped her publish the resulting book which has made her very popular.
