We are tucked away at No 94 on Govindappa Naicken Street in Parrys. If you know Chennai, you know how busy Parrys gets. It’s a maze of streets and people everywhere. Our shop is right in the thick of it. It’s a small space, really, but we manage to fit a lot of LED lighting in there. We’ve been here for quite some time now. The street is always loud, with people shouting and bikes honking, but we’ve gotten used to it. Sometimes it's hard to even get through the front door because of all the boxes being moved. We don’t have any fancy displays or bright signs. Most of our day is spent talking to people who come in looking for specific parts. We know the regulars by name. It’s a bit cramped inside, but it feels like home to us. We don't bother with corporate talk or anything like that. We just sell lights and try to keep the stock organized. The overhead fan usually makes a bit of noise, and the lighting in the back isn't great, which is ironic for a light shop. But it’s a real place with real people working hard. Every morning we roll up the shutters and start again. It’s just how things go on Govindappa Naicken Street. No fluff, just us doing our bit in the city. There's always coffee nearby if the day gets too long. We wouldn't want to be anywhere else in town right now.
