In the post, a woman, not named, details how she and her husband got married against their family’s wishes and moved to Mumbai to build their lives together.

“Rashesh began working and earned Rs 490 a month. So we rented a kitchen at a friend’s apartment and slept on a broken bed. 2 days after our wedding, I started working as an architect and earned Rs 500. With our incomes, we could afford rent and groceries, but that was it,” she says in the post.

The post goes on to detail how they bought a room in a building and worked tirelessly at their jobs.
