Pooja Boutique

Pooja Boutique is right here in Bodakdev, up on the upper level at Rudra Square. If you know the cross road area, it’s not too hard to find. We’ve been sitting in this shop for a while now, just doing our thing with the clothes and making sure the hangers stay straight. It’s mostly just a regular day-to-day operation where we show up, open the shutters, and see who walks in from the street. The light inside the shop is okay, but it gets better in the afternoon when the sun hits the glass a certain way. We spend a lot of time sorting through the new arrivals that come in boxes every Tuesday or Wednesday. Sometimes the deliveries are late, which is a bit of a headache, but that’s just how it goes in this part of town. People from around Bodakdev stop by mostly when they’re already out doing errands at the square. We don’t have any fancy displays or anything like that. It’s just us and the racks of clothes we’ve picked out. Some days are really quiet and we just sit and drink tea while looking out at the traffic. Other days, three or four people come in at once and it feels a bit crowded in here because the shop isn't that big. We try to keep things organized, but honestly, stuff piles up on the back table more often than not. That’s just life at the boutique.
