Rags to richest story of 2020

‘Baba Ka Dhaba’ was one of the most followed rags-to-riches stories of 2020. Baba Ka Dhaba’s sudden popularity during the lockdown in 2020 was mainly credited to a blogger named Gaurav Wasan. His one video on YouTube went viral and prompted people to visit his eatery.

Following superb business and people’s contribution, the old couple opened a restaurant but that didn’t run well and recently had to close down the restaurant. Kamta Prasad and his wife Badami Devi have returned to their old place of business. The eatery had to be closed three months after its opening in December last year.
