Early Life
After Gopalrao tried to enroll her in missionary schools and not working out, they moved to Calcutta. There she learned to read and speak Sanskrit and English.

Married Life
Gopalrao, Joshi's husband, was an abusive wife and child beater. He was obsessed with Joshi learning education. One day, he came into the kitchen and found her cooking with her grandmother and proceeded to go into a raging fit. It was very uncommon for husbands to beat their wives for cooking instead of reading. As Gopalrao's obsession with Joshi's education grew, he sent her with Mrs Carpenter, a Philadelphian missionary, to America to study medicine. Before her voyage, she addressed a public hall in 1883. she addressed the lack of women doctors and said "I volunteer myself as one." She also mention how midwifery was not sufficient in any case and that instructors who teach classes have conservative views. Gopalrao eventually moved to America when he felt unpleased by her efforts. By the time he arrived in Philadelphia, she had completed her studies and was a doctor. From there, they boarded the ship together and went back home.

Death
Joshi died on Feb. 26 1887 right before she turned 22. Her ashes went to New York She was in poor health years proceeding her death. In addition, she was sent medicine form America but no results so she continues studying medicine.
