Sheroes Cafe In Agra | Acid Attack Fighters | Chhapaak Movie | DesiGirl Traveller
In this video, I have vlogged about my journey from Agra to Delhi, different things to do when you are in Agra and a lot more. I have also featured a cafe 'Sheroes Hangout' in Agra in this video. This cafe is a place I would recommend you guys to visit when you are in Agra. So what’s interesting about this café is it’s completely staffed by women who are survivors of horrific acid attacks in India. It was opened in December 2014 and was founded by a Delhi-based NGO called Stop Acid Attacks. The idea is to raise awareness of this dreadful issue and give the women confidence to show their faces in public after being disfigured.
As well as serving tasty food and beverages, the cafe has an ever-expanding library. So you can relax and chill here for a few hours.
Order shot – Food menu, order placing, getting the food on the table, Eating, Price for the meal.
This café is for some cause. So, rather than pampering your tummy with some rich food in Agra, you can choose to go there, a place that brings general public and these survivors on one table and a cup of coffee so happens. These survivors mostly come from the deep roots of the society, belonging to ages ranging from 13 to 30 years old. It takes generally 3 to 4 years to recover from the acid attack. So, come and have your meal and support the cause and also bring a smile on these already beautiful faces.
I have a few more episodes from Agra coming up in my next uploads where I have visited Taj Mahal, a few other monuments, leather market etc. Stay tuned for more such content and remember to SUBSCRIBE to my channel!

Café Sheroes: Life after an acid attack.
Agra city’s, Café Sheroes, in India is known far beyond the country’s borders. The young women who work there all come from different backgrounds and have their own stories to tell but they have one traumatic experience in common: all have been attacked with acid. Their assailants were often driven by unrequited love. Rejecting a suitor’s advances can be dangerous for the young women of India. Acid throwing is on the rise and claiming more victims every year, almost exclusively women.
Even with a life sentence for the attacker, the damage done is irreparable and the victim’s life will never be the same again. Most survivors remain deeply scarred for life and not just physically, the emotional and mental aftermath is equally hard to heal. With disfigured faces, many feel their whole life has been stolen from them: they can be ostracized by neighbours and live with the constant fear that one day, their attacker may escape from prison. Many believe that all normal life opportunities, like a career or marriage, are now beyond their reach.
Café Sheroes comes to their rescue. Run by acid attack survivors who did manage to rebuild their lives after an unimaginably horrific ordeal, it gives them support and encouragement from people who know exactly what they’re going through. Working at the café helps young women regain a sense of control over their own destiny. It’s a community that helps them dream big and achieve their potential, in spite of the aftereffects of their terrible ordeal. As well as helping victims an important part of the café’s mission is raising awareness of the problem to bring about an end to acid throwing.
By supporting and working with each other, the Café Sheroes girls learn to appreciate their inner beauty, rather than mourning the loss of their physical appearance. This film doesn’t just tell the horrifying and disturbing story of an awful crime, but a heartwarming one too about finding strength, happiness and dignity in discovering the true meaning of beauty.

Sheroes Hangout, the moment we heard about this place we knew our trip to India will be incomplete if we didn't pay this small cozy cafe a visit.
Sheroes Hangout is a cafe based in Agra, which is run by accid attack survivor. One more interesting thing about this cafe is that it's runs on a pay as you wish system, so there are no set prices for the food and beverages here.
The idea here was to turn the acid attack victims into accid attack survivors by making them financially independent, providing the emotional and mental support as well as brining the into the mainstream society where they rightfully belong.
This story of the acid attack survivor is a great example of positive story the world needs, but unfortunately the cafe has been demolished due to expanding of the road done by the government.
Sheroes hangout needs all the possible help to relocate so if you want to be a part of this community and give them a hand do contact them.
Right now they need all the help possible to continue to earn a living as thier livehood depends on this cafe.

A short film on these brave awesome super girls.
Sheroes Hangout | Agra
Once horas mas tarde me estaba levantando para tomar un café, por fin había descansado como era debido. Todos se habían ido menos Jorge. Y aprovechamos para ir juntos a un café que me habían recomendado ir llamado Sheroes Hangout. Este lugar me emociono mucho, hasta me hizo lagrimear. Eso si que es difícil para mi.
Un lugar que el amor y el buen trato (algo difícil de ver aquí) se siente desde que se entra hasta que se sale. Como ya había comentado antes, nacer mujer en la India no es algo bien visto. Tanto es así una de las cosas que han pasado en los últimos años es que hombre rocían ácido en la cara de las mujeres. Mas de docientos casos por año. Tan solo por el hecho de ser mujer. Un video introductorio tan emocionante que comer se te hará muy difícil luego de verlo. Estas mujeres luchadoras siguieron adelante y son los mismos turistas que les dan fuerza para ellos. Una de ellas decía que la felicidad comenzó nuevamente luego de abrir este café y que las personas no la veian como un monstruo sino como una luchadora.
Si tengo que recomendar un lugar para ir, sin dudarlo les diría que este es el lugar. Los trataran de una forma muy linda, les sonreirán siempre. Tu seras quien al verlas a los ojos, no veras esas marcas sino una mujer dulce y hermosa. Luego tu pagaras lo que pienses que es correcto.

SHEROES' HANGOUT AGRA vlog by SISTERS' CORNER
#sisterscorner #vlog #sheroeshangout #agra
To be beautiful means to be yourself.
You don't need to be accepted by others.
You need to accept yourself.
And the world will accept you the way you are.
And I took this belief with me as I stepped out of #sheroeshangout cafe in Agra.
I met Bala and Rupa, fighters.. they fought to survive heinous acid attack crime. Just like Bala and Rupa, there are total 8 acid attack fighters running this cafe. The cafe also has jazzy wall graffiti but what took my heart was ' PAY AS YOU WISH' concept. If we can take back home even 1 percent of humanity from them, the society will definitely become a better place! ????
