My first salary has motivated me to work harder: Asha Negi

No matter what is the current number of digits your pay check has now but first salary always remains special no matter how much it is. It is something which is the first step of your future and you cherish it forever.

TellyBuzz takes your favorite stars down the memory lane and asks them to share their memories related to their first salary and that special day of their life. This time we got in touch with the pretty and bubbly Asha Negi, who was recently seen hosting Sony TV's Indian Idol Junior Season 2.

Talking about her first salary, Asha told us, "I got my first salary back in my hometown Dehradun when I was working at a call centre. My first salary was Rs. 4000. I gave it to my Mom and that was the best feeling. I was really happy to get my first salary and the best part was giving that to my Mom and making her happy. My Mom loves Jalebis so she called for Jalebis for everyone with that money and the rest amount as a savings for me."

Looking back to those days, Asha shared, "Now I feel that wherever I have reached today is because of those days. I have known the value of every single penny. It's another feeling but it was a great start that has motivated me to work harder."  

When we quizzed Asha about the importance of first salary in one's life, she shared, "First salary is very important because it's the first part of your bright future that is coming up. This is something which motivates you further for your hard work. It gives you happiness and joy to work for your future. one should have fun with their first salary because you have worked really hard for it but I think that the best feeling that you will get with your first salary is when you will give that to your parents. Giving your first salary in your parents hand is totally a different feeling and I think everybody should experience that."
