For someone who hated the idea of going out and meeting people, PULA was (and still is) a boon! I remember my first sub meet that I attended with my mum, I was so nervous because I thought it would be just be all aunties and I would get bored, but little did i know that these group of women, no matter what age or stage of life, are all kids!! I felt like I belonged almost instantly!
I was only a student when I joined PULA, gaining experience from wherever I could, but then through this massive platform, I have gotten so much more exposure that I cannot possibly summarize in words how awesome PULA is and how thankful I am!
I have met some strangers here who family to me are now almost. “Bas unke ghar jaake rehna reh gya hai” you all have become such an integral part of my life, thank you so much!
Again I want to thank each of the members on this platform who have trusted me with their work, and those of you continue to recommend me to other people! I wouldn’t be where I am today if PULA wasn’t a part of my life. Thank you PULA mommy Sonia Agarwal Konjeti! Live Long & Prosper PULA!!!

I joined PULA when I was going through a rough patch in my life back in early 2016. Joining PULA came as a welcome distraction. As the time went on this group went from just being a one stop shop to an information exchange centre. It was lovely to see it grow. This group not only cured my boredom during my forced house arrest this year but it also brought back two old friends and their families into my life. I have known Amruta Deepak Salunkhe and Kavita Kandpal for more than 23 years, but lost touch after school. Being in PULA gave us back those lost years.
So I would eternally be grateful to this group for bringing these gems back in my life.
I have missed a lot of meets, missed out on meeting some wonderful people, but I plan on catching up soon.

My first words to begin would be to express my thanks to Sonia Agarwal Konjeti for creating such a wonderful group through which I got connected to so many wonderful ladies. When I joined PULA I never knew I would get so many new friends. Pula gave me my 1st ever moment where I started my own business. Pula gave me a new name “KHAKHRA QUEEN” it really feels great to see so many good reviews about my work and makes me feel proud on myself. When I did sponsor my Khakhra’s for the 1st time in Pula Party never knew I would get such lovely response from there. When I did PULA BAZAAR LIVE that time I came to know that people do know me by my name they were searching for Khushi’s khakhra stall and were eagerly waiting to try my Khakhra’s really made me feel so good that was the best part of my life and I am very thankful to PULA for this…. Thank you, Sonia, for giving us such a lovely Platform.

I owned a lady’s boutique in Pimpri since childhood I was passionate about doing some or the other things. I was very happy and satisfied with my work but due to pregnancy complications and premature delivery I could not handle my boutique and closed it in 2015 after my Angel’s birth. But my frustration level was very high. I lost my identity, full day sitting at home taking care of baby and house.
Now coming to the point, I joined PULA in mid of 2016 when I was mentally drained and again in search for my new identity, new friends just then I was introduced to PULA. When I joined this platform, I was amazed to see how strangers can become friends on social media but slowly I got so many lovely friends through PULA WhatsApp group and I started my frozen snacks business and in very short time I got my confidence and identity back with pride. God blessed me with a beautiful family and of course credit goes to Sonia Agarwal Konjeti Ma’am. She did a great job, she has connected thousands of broken depressed hearts to this platform and result are 100percent positive. If I see myself today I feel very confident because of PULA. I pray to God Almighty bless this platform abundantly. May we grow hand in hand together, we respect each other. Love you PULA

I think life of Pune ladies have been made super easy just because of PULA. I am part of many other groups but none like PULA. well if you ask anyone at my home they all know PULA including my 6 yr old kid. anything I get at home the first question is where did u get this from PULA?????
I was into making chocolates since quiet long but that was specific to relatives and friends who knew I did it and more so as I was working this was my hobby, but through PULA I could reach out to larger audience not that I am making it a lot of money from this but give me a lot of satisfaction when I get feedbacks from people I have not met.
Thanks to the entire PULA TEAM.
PULA IS FAMOUS WITH THE MALE FOLKS TOO.
I always ask my hubby will guys be able to make a similar group and his answer is no and he says if there will be it would just be for sharing stuff and thats it.

I am falling short of words, Don’t know how do I start. My younger child was almost 1.5 yr old when husband moved to UK for work. I was left alone with 2 kids and believe me it was toughest time to juggle the kids and chores. Being independent since college days taking tuitions while studying and then job in top MNCs, being a stay at home mom was really getting difficult for me. I used to ger frustrated over every small thing and get stressed and at times depressed too. At that time PULA was newly formed. I had joined in Oct/Nov 2015 and trust me since the first day I’m following it. All the hard efforts of admins to get group in place, adherence to rules, etc. Friendly group members, open forum for discussion was indeed impressive. This made me rethink leading to a positive change in my life style. I was determined to manage everything just like my old times looking good after 2 kids, carrying any attire with same confidence which I had lost in my gowns or legging and Kurtas all days.
I started looking at everything positively and tried to be at peace. that moment I was really happy though my hubby was miles away. Thank you for helping me find myself
Later we got an opportunity to join him for couple of years. PULA is home away from home. My extended family. I’m still so very connected to though being miles away…
Unfortunately, I couldn’t attend a single meet till data. But wish to meet everyone soon.
For me PULA is Home away from home
Special thanks to Sonia for creating this platform.
List is long and so are the overflowing emotions. Can’t pen everything. But loads of love and respect to each one of you ?

Before marriage I was preparing for Judiciary services exam. As I was from judiciary family background it was my dream to become Civil Judge. When first time I appeared in Preliminary exam and fell short of just 4 marks. I didn’t give up and again started preparation. As I was eldest daughter in my family my grandfather wanted me to get married, but I wasn’t ready I pleaded to my parents please give me one year, it is a difficult exam and it was my first attempt but they didn’t listen they found a suitable boy and I got married then I had a baby.
After birth of my baby we moved to US for 3 years. I used to get bored. I used to think about Judiciary, I went into depression and was frustrated all the while.
After 3 years when we came back to Pune I joined one export firm but after 1 year I resigned due to family reason.
I was not happy wanted to do something good in my life. Suddenly one day my cousin brothers came to Pune from Banaras for saree exhibition I also helped them and that day my destiny took a turn ?.
I thought why not to start saree business from home. I started and got wonderful response but there was something missing that was – Marketing
After few days I heard about PULA. I joined Pula after 3-4 requests
I posted my saree collection and got awesome response. I started getting amazing reviews and orders from PULA. I am proud Entrepreneur now.
I feel so good when my PULA friends tag me. Now I have my own identity.
Thanks a lot Sonia Agarwal Konjeti for creating Pula ??. I can’t thank this platform enough.
