Finally he came to a conclusion finding the reason for the higher cost<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>as these<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Indian food items, are handmade and therefore needs talented people to cook which also involves extensive cost. At the same time, foods like pizza, burgers and donuts are made at a lower cost and are easily machine-made.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div><span style="font-size: large;"> </span><br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="font-size: large;">The electronic engineer started working on this part, and within a year he built two models. First he invented a medium-sized dosa maker as big as a microwave and named it Dosamatic and another one much bigger in size mainly for making dosas in large quantities. He called his invention, “dosa printer” which could line up dosas within a few seconds by just pressing a button.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div><span style="font-size: large;"> </span><br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="font-size: large;">The dosamatic which he invented for large scale use costs just one-third of the present machines sold in the market that come at a cost of Rs 3 lakh, said Vikas. The engineering student from SRM University has now set up a company called Mukund Foods with the help of Indian Angel Network and a friend with an intention to adapt food production in the domestic sector and also to export the product to US in future.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div><span style="font-size: large;"> </span><br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Eswar Vikas hailing from Hyderabad had spent a total of 6 lakhs to put up his dream project that can yield nearly 700 dosas at a time.</span></span></div><span style="font-size: large;"> <span style="font-size: xx-small;">sd press</span> </span></div>
