Rupa Rani

Rupa Rani is located at 31, Shivaji Nagar. If you know this area, you know it’s one of the busiest parts of the city. There’s always something happening right outside our door. The building is old and the stairs are a bit narrow, but it has a lot of character. I’ve been running things here for quite some time now. It’s not a large operation, just a few of us working in a couple of rooms. We don’t have a lot of fancy technology or modern furniture. Most of what we have has been here since we opened. We focus on getting the tasks done one by one. It’s often loud outside with the buses and the market nearby, but we’ve learned to tune it out. People from all over come to Shivaji Nagar, and we get a real mix of visitors. We don’t try to impress anyone with big talk. We just tell them what we can do and how long it will take. Sometimes we run out of chai or the electricity cuts out for an hour, but we just take a break and wait. It’s a very human way of doing business. We know the street vendors outside and usually get our lunch from the stalls nearby. It’s a messy, lively, and honest place to work. Number 31 is just a small part of this big, busy neighborhood.
