Mita Chakraborty

Mita Chakraborty is the name on the door at shop number 139 inside the B N Roychowdhury Super Market on Feeder Road. Being inside a supermarket means there is always a lot of noise and movement around us. We have been operating from this stall for a long time. It’s a small space, but we make the most of it. We have everything we need to do hair work tucked into the corners. People often drop in while they are doing their grocery shopping or running other errands in the market. It’s convenient for them and keeps us busy. We don't have any big advertisements or flashy lights. Just a simple sign and our tools. The chairs are comfortable enough for a quick cut. We see a lot of mothers and their kids, and also folks just coming from work. The air in the market can be a bit stuffy, so we keep our own fans going. We have a routine down now after all these years. We know which days are going to be the busiest. It’s just a straightforward hair shop. No complicated menus or anything. We just listen to what you want and do our best with the scissors. If you are ever at the B N Roychowdhury Super Market, you can find us there. We are usually at the shop throughout the day. It’s a steady job and we like being part of the market life here.
