YouTuber. Actor. Blogger. An adorable goofball. Prajakta Koli aka MostlySane literally started from the bottom. Having grown up in Thane, Maharashtra, her upbringing was as middle-class as it could get. Today, she is on magazine covers and in films, but until a couple of years back, she was just a girl who loved performing skits and posting videos of them on YouTube.

Prajakta recently took to Instagram to share a very touching story. Back in the day, her father used to work double shifts at Cadbury’s company canteen. And now, his very daughter is on a billboard for Cadbury!
“Baba worked double shifts at the Cadbury’s company canteen when I was about five years old. ‘Bob you’re too loud in the kitchen when you cook!!’ He still replies with – ‘I am a canteen worker, bachha! I don’t have time to be quiet. Too many people to feed’,” Prajakta Koli wrote on Instagram.
She went on to add that her parents worked very hard to give her a quality education and a decent lifestyle. But her father’s stint at Cadbury will always be special for her and her family.
“I saw my parents work every single day to provide me with the right education, nutrition, manners and ambition. Many many odd jobs. But baba’s stint at Cadbury’s will always remain special. The chocolate tray that came home with every Diwali bonus will always remain special. The smile I saw on my parents’ faces last night when we drove to see me plastered on a Cadbury’s Billboard will always, ALWAYS remain special,” she wrote.
