Speaking more about her story therapy she says, "It is important to be able to understand the method in which a particular idea or thought is presented in front of children from these underprivileged sections. The children are always eager to learn new things, and when it is presented to them in a manner in which their innocence is retained and the idea is conveyed at the same time, they learn better."

On her organisation the Ekalavya Bal Shikshan and Arogya Nyasa she says, "We started our bus project with a simple thought in our mind-let children be children. Let them be able to play laugh and have fun. It is a reason as to why we just drive down the bus to a slum and let the children play to their hearts content. In fact from this June onwards we have also started a night school for dropouts. It's an archetypical example of how one good leads to another."

About her story-telling programme, which was recently held at the SM Joshi Hall, she says, "Even though there is a lot of good work happening we need to make people aware of our work, and get them to participate in this. It is a reason as to why we had the programme so that people could not only listen to the works of great authors but also take a cue and join us in our endevour to help sustain our various projects."

I have maintained this before and I say it even now, it is an unspeakable joy to see a child who has battled against all odds very early in life to find a piece of his childhood in these little joys that we strive hard to give them. Probably this is what providing a good life for others is all about," she adds.
