Mumbai: Phoolbasan Yadav, who was awarded Padma Shri, appeared as a guest in today’s Karamveer Special episode on KBC 12 Live. Renuka Shahane, a well-known Bollywood actress, came to accompany him. Amitabh Bachchan said that Phool Basan Yadav, a resident of Rajnandgaon district of Chhattisgarh, has become a role model for women. She has helped countless women not only to stand on their own two feet but also to become self-reliant in the fight against evil.
He said that at the age of 7 he saw his parents crying in a state of poverty. We had 5 sisters and three brothers. I used to think that people who are well-educated can make good money. I tried a lot, went to school then Guruji said bring your father. He said to father and mother who both replied that we are poor and you are a daughter, you are foreign wealth, what will you do after studying. Phulbasan explains that when I was 7 years old, I realized how difficult life is. To this day I have not forgotten the words of my parents.
Phulbasan said that she got married at the age of 10 and her mother-in-law came at the age of 14. I used to work in other people’s house and sometimes it happened that there was nothing to feed the children at home. When I used to go to the street, people would close the doors of the house and she came to the house to ask for things. There was a time when I thought that I would die myself and not let the children live in such poverty. But my daughter grabbed my hand and said mother I do not want to die. That’s when I decided that I would do something that would not make women feel so helpless.
She said that when I decided to go out of the house, my husband protested a lot, there were fights and beatings, I had to stay out of the house. But my willpower was so strong that I was determined. Later my husband also woke up and many other men of the society also woke up. Today more than two lakh women are associated with me.
