Sudha Murthy was not selling vegetables, but instead, she was performing a service that she has been following from a young age.Sudha Murthy - Wife of N.R.Narayana Murthy, a co-founder of Infosys, is known for her Moral values and simplicity. Speaking to Banglore Mirror on October 27, 2013, she said that donating money was easy because it is a simple transaction, but doing Physical Seva was not. Mrs. Murthy ensures one day in a year to make a Garland at Tirumala Balaji Temple, and three days to cut vegetables at Raghavendra Swamy Mutt at Jayanagar for Prasadam. Sudha Murthy told IANS in a free-wheeling chat about her viral photograph, in which she was seen sitting amidst heaps of vegetables, that she was sitting there for sacred work and not for a publicity event. She started this practice from a very young age with her grandmother. Since then, Sudha Murthy has been strictly following it even till this date. She likes to do this because it gives her a sense of satisfaction. She feels that she is serving God. According to her, everyone was equal in front of God. Hence, she has not sat to sell vegetables to get rid of Ahankar.
