As per reports, the idea for selling samosas came to Shikhar when he was studying, and he had a dream to sell samosas outside State Bank of India (SBI) branches. But, keeping society’s norms in mind and the degrees he had, he chose to become a scientist. One day in 2015, when he saw a boy crying for samosa at a food court, he decided to celebrate the most popular snack of India, and quit his reputed job as a scientist, moved to Bengaluru, and opened ‘Samosa Singh’. At that time, Nidhi Singh was also working at a higher position in a pharmaceutical company in Gurugram, with a yearly package of Rs 30 lakh. (Image: istock)
