23-year-old acid attack victim, Rupa, has
turned an ugly incident in her life and made a
beautiful story out of it. In 2008, Rupa was
attacked with acid by her stepmother. She
dropped her surname after being disowned by
her father, who supported his wife over her.
According to Rupa, she had always dreamt of
becoming a designer but after the attack, she
had to pause her dreams as she walked in
shame with a scarf covering her face.
"I always wanted to be a designer but
after the attack there was a pause in my
life. I was so insecure and embarrassed
by my scars I used to cover my face with
a scarf. I always hung onto my dream
but I never knew that one day it would be
possible and I would be launching my
own label" she told Dailymail.
Years after, she has been able to conquer her
fears as she has launched her own clothing
line and is modeling them alongside other
acid attack survivors. What an amazing story!
