A Day trip to Agra had founder WE , Suparnaa Chadda, spending time with Rupa SAA (Survivor Acid Attack -as she prefers to call her last name) Rupa was attacked in 2008 by her step mother and now works with Sheroes hang out cafe which is a as you wish cafe to support the Acid Attack survivors. Rupa bubbles with confidence and has dreams in her eyes of designing for Hindi Film stars. Each girl at Sheroes, had a different story to share. Neetu survived an attack by her own father at the age of 3 which was aimed at her mother Geeta. Ritu was attacked by her own family to settle a dispute, Dolly was attacked for warding off advances by a boy in the neighbourhood. In their own words – ‘Agra is the city of love but the world still needs to understand the meaning of love’. Each story may be different but the subjugation of women as mere objects to settle scores is predominant. Rupa along with the other survivors at Sheroes form a source of inspiration for all who visit the cafe.
