How do I validate my idea?

I am very serious about this one idea and I think it would be very useful for me and my family.

So, I want to ask the founder and the pms here "How can I validate this idea".

I don't want to jump right into creating this product without some validation.

There is a global competitor for this idea, but they have very small download number around 15k downloads across both platform (apple+android).

I have a budget of 5k ruppee to validate this idea.

Find 1, 10 and 100 paying customers.

If u can do that... validation is done.

This is so generic advice, i didn't even think about any revenue model now, I am looking for specific actionable things to do to validate the idea like running ads with figma prototype, something like this

I mean yes, because I can convince my friends and family to use it but I don't know if others and their friends and family will use it or not?

I can't tell that here, because I have already talked about the idea on twitter, I am very much active on twitter, so it might throw away my anonymity here

join product communities and put your prototype and ask them for reviewing and if possible put a survey revolving around your idea and collect data and draw insights from them. If you are a student, try running the prototype(anonymously) via college communities. Again survey questions krna mat bhulna. Maybe this can help!
