Hyderabad, August 3, 2025 – Syed Murtuza Qadri and Fayaza Nisa, a determined NRI couple, have turned their return from Saudi Arabia into a heartwarming success story in Hyderabad. Both holding MBA degrees, they left their jobs to chase their passion, using skills gained from catering diplomas in Bangalore and London, with Fayaza, a certified chef, adding a special touch with her Diploma in French Patisserie from City & Guilds, UK. Their journey shows how hard work and talent can build a bright future back home.

For NRIs, returning from Gulf countries like Saudi Arabia is often inevitable, as foreign residents can live there for years without gaining citizenship. Many who stay long secure their future, but those who return early, like Murtuza and Nisa, must rely on their skills to stand tall in their homeland. After coming back to Hyderabad, they started Cloud Bakery in Tolichowki, a small venture making delicious cakes and bakery items. Its quick success boosted their confidence to dream bigger.

Today, on Sunday, 3rd August 2025, they celebrated the grand opening of Patisserie 18, a beautiful bakery and coffee shop, at Banjara Hills, Road No. 1, next to Yusuf Bhai Perfumes, Hyderabad, Telangana, India. The event was proudly inaugurated by Murtuza’s parents—his father, mother, and mother-in-law (Fayaza Nisa’s mother)—marking a proud family moment. The event offered free coffee to the first 50 customers, with tasty coffee, sandwiches, and desserts available from 10:00 AM to 11:00 PM. Customers can easily take away their orders, place phone orders at 9949390018 before arriving, or book party orders with at least 48 hours’ advance notice.

Their story is a shining example of how honesty, hard work, and true dedication lead to success. From a modest start with Cloud Bakery to the elegant Patisserie 18, Murtuza and Nisa have shown that returning NRIs can thrive by using their education and experience. Hyderabad and other Indian cities are full of such inspiring tales, and this couple stands out as a role model for the younger generation, especially NRIs eager to settle in their homeland and build a secure, successful life.
