She lost her father in the Kargil war but her spirit still remains.
Life took a 360-degree turn for the then eight-year-old Diksha Dwivedi, who lost her father Major CB Dwivedi during the Kargil war. As the sense of pride of being a martyr's daughter overcame the sense of loss, Diksha decided to tell stories of war through soldiers' letters from the battlefield. In fact, she soon became an entrepreneur and started AkkarBakkar.com, an open platform for people across the world to tell their stories. Now, at 26, the woman isn't just a successful entrepreneur, but is an inspiration to so many girls out there.
The best part? She has a quirky side too--one that the world doesn't really know about. Check out her conversation with us and get to know her better.
