She started Anny started flying the Boeing 737 at the age of 19. Her family faced financial issues. Since she grew up in Vijayawada. Though, she could write and read English but speaking English was a major challenge that I had to overcome.

Initially, it was difficult for her, but slowly she gets adjusted. People used to mock her for poor English, which hurts her a lot.
She had completed her training when I was 19 years old. As soon as she finished her training, Anny got a job with Air India. During that period, for the first time, she went abroad. Tanu Spain ki training kosam vellindi and as soon as she come back, she got the opportunity to fly Boeing 737. Ever since then, there has been no looking back. Tanaku 21 years unapudu, she was sent to London for further training. It was then when she started to fly Boeing 777. Apatinundi tana life eh maripoyindi.
