Sri Aruna Novelty

We are right across from Ramesh Golden Market in Nagarathpet. The address is number 120. It is a very busy street with lots of shops tucked away in every corner. We focus on novelty goods and have a lot of variety if you look closely at the shelves. The building is old but it stays sturdy through the seasons. We have many boxes stacked up near the back because we get deliveries almost every other day. It can get a bit cramped inside when more than three people are shopping at once. We don't mind that though. Nagarathpet has a certain energy that you don't find elsewhere in the city. We start our day by cleaning the front step and getting the lights on. Most of our customers are shopkeepers themselves who need stuff for their own places. We talk to them about the weather or the local news while they pick out what they need. It is a very social way to run a business. We do not use any big marketing tricks to get people in. We just show up and open the shutters every morning. The fans on the ceiling hum all day long. Sometimes we forget to turn them off at night when we leave. It is just a simple place for simple things. We have seen the neighborhood change a lot but we stay pretty much the same.
