Who is Kumari Aunty? Kumari Aunty, also known as Dasari Sai Kumari, has become a prominent figure in Hyderabad's street food scene, operating a food truck that attracts a substantial crowd with its affordable and delicious offerings. Her popularity skyrocketed, thanks to a YouTube video by an influencer that captured the essence of her street food venture.

However, the viral video has now got her in trouble. Recently, the Hyderabad Traffic Police halted Kumari Aunty's food truck operations, causing distress for both her and disappointed customers. Despite past interruptions, she is puzzled by the present situation, where her business is being singled out for traffic obstruction. Frustrated Kumari Aunty faces the challenge of relocating her business, unsure if it will thrive in a new location.

The police suggest legal action, but as a middle-class woman with limited resources, Kumari Aunty finds this option impractical. Local residents suspect influential figures and envy may be behind the police action, as social media identifies the location near prominent hotels.
