Daring Arsh Kumar

The coronavirus pandemic caused a major loss of livelihood for people around the globe. Its effect was also seen in small businesses. Due to a loss in income, depression, and desperation gripped the minds of many. In energy-sapping times like these, one man dared to go out there and make an opportunity for himself, while others waited for one to appear itself. "Daring" is a short story based on real-life events that highlights the struggles of that journey and its rewards. Having lost hope for his business in the food industry, Saurabh, the protagonist, decides to venture out into the sanitisation business, hoping to at least be able to make ends meet. However, his journey turns out to be far more exciting than that and he is able to make it big.
