Suresh

I’m Suresh and my shop is right on the Main Road in Vidyaranyapura. It’s a good location because everyone around here uses this road to get to the market or the bus stand. I’ve been in this same spot for many years now. It’s just a general service place where I help out with whatever people need. Sometimes it’s fixing things, other times it’s just giving advice on local stuff. The shop is small and has a lot of things shoved into the corners. I have an old chair where I sit and watch the traffic go by when it’s quiet. Vidyaranyapura has grown a lot since I started out here. There used to be more trees and fewer cars. Now it’s always humming with activity. People stop by to chat or ask for directions. I don't have a big team or any fancy equipment. It’s just me and sometimes a helper if things get busy. I try to keep the place open from early morning until the shops around me close. My family lives nearby so I’m always around the area. If you are walking down the main road, you’ll see my sign. It’s nothing special, just my name. I like being part of the neighborhood. It’s a simple life and I know most of the faces that pass by every day. Some of my customers have been coming to me since they were kids. That’s how it goes in a place like this.
