side
and

she
always
thinks
about
reusing
waste
materials
lying

and
loves
to
create
beautiful
art
pieces
using
waste
materials.
While

this
didn't
come
as
a
cakewalk
for
her.
Talking
about
the
struggles
she
faced,
Leela
stated
that
it
was
quite
difficult
to
gain
followers
initially.
However,
she
started
using
different
social
media
apps
which
helped
her
connect
with
the
audience.
Soon,
Josh
came
to
her
rescue
which
helped
her
reach
more
people.
As,
Leela
started
uploading
short
videos
and
it
gained
a
lot
of
attention.

she
is
