Bengaluru woman's mother pawned gold bangles for her admission fee, years later...
A Bengaluru-based woman working at Flipkart has shared the story of how her mother pawned her gold bangles to pay her college admission fee - a sacrifice she said continues to drive her every day.
Years after her mother pawned her gold bangles to ensure her education did not come to a halt, a Bengaluru-based woman said that her success remains rooted in that sacrifice.
Anusmita recalled that when it came time to pay her admission fee, her mother did not hesitate to mortgage her jewellery to ensure her daughter’s education did not come to a halt.
“My mother put her gold bangles in finance to pay my college admission fee. She didn't think twice. She just did it. Because that's what she does,” she said in an Instagram post.
For Anusmita, landing a job at Flipkart was about far more than professional success. In her words, it became proof that her mother’s sacrifice had led to something meaningful.
“Every single day I show up at Flipkart - I show up for her. This job isn't just a job. It's proof that her sacrifice meant something. That the girl whose mother pawned her gold to send her to college made it somewhere worth going,” she said.
Anusmita does not often speak publicly about this chapter of her life, but felt it was time to acknowledge it: “Today felt like the right day to say it out loud. Ma - this one’s for you. Everything is for you. Always. Love you above everything.”
The video opens with Anusmita embracing her mother before moving into snippets from her life at work, turning a personal achievement into a tribute to the woman she credits for making it possible.
The text overlay on her video summed up her journey in a single line: “The girl whose mother pawned her gold bangles to pay her admission fees, cracked the job to afford everything for her mother.”
Many viewers praised the woman for her perseverance in the comments section of the post.
This is so heartwarming!
