Mysore :
Eleanor Roosevelt, wife of the former US President Franklin D. Roosevelt and a human rights activist who was renowned as the First Lady of the World has once beautifully said about women that ‘a woman is like a tea bag – you can’t tell how strong she is until you put her in hot water.’
The saying speaks volumes about a woman’s endless capabilities that make her special. And what could be the strength of women power when two delightfully energetic women join hands together? Needless to say, they can achieve wonders. Want a of for the same? Here is one:
Meet the entrepreneur-duo Suma Prakash and Suma Dinesh from city whose story could inspire many a young aspiring entrepreneurs. The ladies who are into the business of event management since almost a decade now, set up their firm named Flames about 9 years ago, not just with a view to start up something different but also to make it big as entrepreneurs in a world so full of challenges.
What started as an initiative taken during kitty parties, ladies club celebrations or simple events in their own children’s school soon became a passion and a way of life for the two. “Back then, when event management itself was little known to the people of Mysore, we had a very difficult time convincing people as to what we were actually into,” recalls Suma Prakash, adding: “but we took every small, big and challenging opportunity that came our way and strived for perfection with every event that we organised. The journey started there and there has been no looking back since then.”
Explaining that they have organised about 100 weddings and over 200 other kinds of events such as birthday parties, baby showers, corporate events and more, Suma Dinesh says, “When we initially started it, it was a major challenge, especially because it is just us two women who ran up and down to plan and organise everything. But now, we are so well versed and have such cooperative people associated with us that it has all become really easy for us now.”
And according to both the ladies, the credit goes to their respective families which they say have thoroughly cooperated with them from day one. “It is no easy thing to let all things at your home haywire and reach out to perfectly organise someone else’s big day. There have been times at which we have both reached homes at almost 1 in the night, yet our families did not object even a single bit and thus been our biggest strengths.
Suma & Suma have constantly persevered to achieve professionalism, perfection and utmost customer satisfaction, with an endeavour to serve their clients better.
“Today, we feel extremely happy when people compliment us for the way we organise events, especially weddings. And each time a wedding gets over, we feel like we have achieved something special.
The ladies have newly opened an office of their own on city’s Valmiki Road in V.V. Mohalla. For details call: You can contact them on: 98866-19954 or 98452-71051.
