The city of Udaipur adorned with lakes and architectural monuments, embellished with variety of handicrafts has seen a sudden rise in mall culture, fashion and eating outlets in the past few years. All these are flourishing because the inhabitants have developed their skills to beat the tough side of life by taking a plunge into the field of entrepreneurship.

Even in the past, people have carried out family business with new turns and looks and made them grow. The traditional way of carrying out business has seen a lot of changes and over the last decade or so the city has seen more and more talent coming up in a variety of fields. This could be the effect of internet now as information and detailing for every product is available at the touch of a button. But the point to be thought of here is the depth of mind of an individual where he thinks about bringing in changes to make a difference in the lives of others by providing them needle wrapped in a beautiful decorative style, so to speak.

The ideas brought forward for anything new may not be actually new. They could be the result of pomp and show loved by people hence hinting to the level of standard to match steps with the rest of the world.

Udaipur is constantly seeing new ideas from the young minds as well as the not so young. But then ideas are flowing in regularly and thanks to the grace of God, almost 90 percent are flourishing, rest 10 percent may follow very soon. The innovations are in the form of new apps for the benefit of people in day to day life, coaching centres, online food and take-away centres, gift wrapping for any occasion, event management for just every celebration and even chocolates. With varied interests and desires and also the thought of competition to stay in the market, people think more about standing out in the crowd with uniqueness in their product. A lot of youngsters have moved away from the basic pattern of life to establish themselves catering to the needs of the citizens by studying their minds and necessities on the basis of researches through opinion polls and other social networking sites.

After some discussions with friends on this topic, many have shown interest in being on their own as they don’t want to be bossed around. The need to be independent and successful has not been forced upon them, it is the result of the seeds of culture which are now getting stronger and the understanding to stand by parents in their old age when they need utmost support. Another important point is strengthening of relationships to do away with the growing demand of nuclear families which ultimately results in a weak foundation for the children forcing them to become heartless.

Some people have not shown positive results about settling in Udaipur. The reason behind this is very obvious. The city cannot provide them with the necessary equipments and infrastructure and getting them from other developed cities is a big load on the pocket. Since pros and cons are connected with everything, we cannot blame anyone.

Our people have been able to accommodate their wishes even with the limited resources. The zeal to show their calibre and fight the oddest of circumstances is on a very high platform. Nothing can beat the fire within; this fire is ultimately burning down the obstacles.

It feels good to have a variety in all aspects. With the ‘Never say die’ spirit, our budding entrepreneurs deserve applause. For them, it doesn’t matter what people think or talk. They believe that acceptance usually comes in late for new or unheard of things, but it does.
