A school dropout from a poor family in southern India has revolutionised menstrual health for rural women in developing countries by inventing a simple machine they can use to make cheap sanitary pads.
His wife left him, people in his village scorned him, and then his own mother left him.

There really are people who are just born to be an entrepreneur.
