    Falguni is an inspiration for every woman out there. She is killing stereotypes in her way. She thinks that the mentality of the business community and society as a whole needs to change. The perception that only men can take risks has to be bid a goodbye. Determination and will power are her weapons to destroy any hurdle. There are still miles to go on this journey, and she believes that she will do it, for sure.
