This book proves that no matter who you are, you can always help another in need’ –SHAHRUKH KHAN ‘Her book is all about that indomitable grit that dismantles stereotypes in which society places the survivors of acid attacks’ ––KAILASH SATYARTHI ‘A powerful tribute to the strength of acid-attack survivors’—–FARHAN AKHTAR ‘Not just a book about acid-attack survivors but an inspiring read about how you can help them too’ ––SAIF ALI KHAN ‘The stories captured here are not only about pain; they are about overcoming and thriving. Pick up this book only if you want to be inspired to change the world’ —–KAPIL DEV A Delhi brat studying fashion design at Leeds College of Art decides to devote her final-year project to ‘women’s empowerment'. What begins as a one-off engagement with the lives of acid-attack survivors draws her back to India to shoot a documentary on their lives. Then, an effort to raise funds for one of the survivors catapults Ria Sharma into the corrosive, devastating world of acid attacks. Today, she runs the award-winning NGO Make Love Not Scars, which works with survivors to raise funds. This is the story of how, over the years, Ria slowly learnt to find her groove as a campaigner and crusader as well as counter death threats, ageism and sexism. Her own story is closely woven with the stories of the many women who have helped her grow from a fickle girl into a woman of substance. Peppered with humour and bubbling with wisdom, Make Love Not Scars is an unusual coming-of-age tale.
