Four year old Farhin hails from Govandi, one of the innumerable poverty stricken slum pockets in Mumbai. Her father, Gulab Khan, works as a driver and her mother, Farida Banu, is a housewife, Farhin has three siblings as well. Though her father is illiterate and mother has not studied beyond the fourth grade, Farhin can dream of a stable future with a good education.
Farhin studies at the Govandi study center, run by Sahaara. She is a keen and enthusiastic student who has always been eager to attend the study center. She particularly enjoys dressing up for class. Sheis very active during playtime and is a keen student as well! To any first time visitor, Farhin’s infectious smile, confidence while interacting with children and adults would belie her background and family’s poverty.
