Sharath Babu has just graduated from the prestigious IIM at Ahmedabad. This year, as employers offered upto $185,000 per year as salaries, it is Babu, declining all offers, who made the news.
His mother Deepa Ramani, raised her three children single-handed, on the Rs 30 that she earned as a cook in a nearby school. Sharath helped out by selling idlis in the streets, even as he pursued his studies that eventually took him to IIM-A.
What are his plans? He wants to run a catering business along modern management lines and employ 50,000 people in ten years.
Significantly, as Babu made the announcement, his mother shared the dais with an admiring N R Narayanamurthy of Infosys.
