<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="font-size: large;">When Vikas visited a restaurant in Delhi one day, he had an
expensive dosa that came at Rs 110 and was surprised by the high cost when
compared to the price of pizza, burger and donuts sold in the country.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">

</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="font-size: large;">He started thinking on why Indian food like dosa, puri and
chappatis are sold at a higher price. Finally he came to a conclusion finding
the reason for the higher cost<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>as
these<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Indian food items, are handmade
and therefore needs talented people to cook which also involves extensive cost.
At the same time, foods like pizza, burgers and donuts are made at a lower cost
and are easily machine-made.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="font-size: large;">The electronic engineer started working on this part, and
within a year he built two models. First he invented a medium-sized dosa maker
as big as a microwave and named it Dosamatic and another one much bigger in
size mainly for making dosas in large quantities. He called his invention,
“dosa printer” which could line up dosas within a few seconds by just pressing
a button.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="font-size: large;">The dosamatic which he invented for large scale use costs
just one-third of the present machines sold in the market that come at a cost
of Rs 3 lakh, said Vikas. The engineering student from SRM University has now
set up a company called Mukund Foods with the help of Indian Angel Network and
a friend with an intention to adapt food production in the domestic sector and
also to export the product to US in future.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Eswar Vikas hailing
from Hyderabad had spent a total of 6 lakhs to put up his dream project that
can yield nearly 700 dosas at a time.</span></span></div>
