Sohna Masala

Sohna Masala is located on GT Road, specifically at SCF 124, right across from the Sukhraj Cinema in Bathinda. It is a very easy place to find because the cinema is a big landmark in this area. We have been working here for quite some time, grinding spices and selling them to people who pass by. The air inside the shop is usually thick with the scent of red chilies, which makes everyone sneeze if they aren't used to it. We don't have any big corporate structure here. It is just a few of us handling the machines and packing the masala into bags. The GT Road is always full of trucks and cars, so there is a constant hum of engines in the background. When a big movie is playing at Sukhraj, the whole street gets packed with people, and sometimes they wander into our shop just to see what the smell is. We spend most of our day pouring whole spices into the grinders and watching the powder come out the other side. It is dusty work, and our hair usually ends up looking a bit orange from the chili dust. We don't use fancy packaging with shiny labels. We just use plain bags and a simple stamp to mark them. It is a straightforward business, and we don't try to make it sound like anything more than what it is. We just grind the spices, fill the packets, and sell them to whoever walks in.
