मितेश गुप्ता,जिन्होंने दुर्भाग्य से कुछ साल पहले एक दुर्घटना में अपना एक हाथ खो दिया था,लेकिन आज भी पूरे जोश के साथ मुंबई शहर के मलाड इलाके में पाव भाजी स्टॉल चलाते हैं!<a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/StoriesOfInspiration?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#StoriesOfInspiration</a><br />

The man, Mitesh Gupta, lost his hand in an unfortunate accident some years ago but has developed the skill to quickly cut vegetables with one hand.</p>
<p>
He also nurses the ambition to one day progress from the street stall to owning a restaurant of his own and is working hard to save money.</p>
<p>
“Meri mushkilo se keh do, mera khuda bada hai,” Sonal Goel tweeted along with the video in Hindi.</p>
<p>
Which means: Tell all my problems that my God is far bigger than them.</p>
