The two sisters are part of India's tech boom, having worked in the intersection of bio-tech and radiology and in AI.  The lockdown and going back home and seeing the power of the cooking of their amma and amma chechi (maternal aunt) and their ambitions (the two matrons reached the semifinals of a cooking competition aired on TV), they felt the need to create a platform for such unspoken stars of Indian kitchens. Out of this came the inspiration to start Meengurry Memories, with their mum's banana chips as the first product.
