Aashika Glasses

You can find us on Alagarperumal Kovil Street in Vadapalani. It’s one of those streets that gets pretty crowded, especially being near the temple area. The shop is at the old number 11/2, though the new number is 29, which can be a bit confusing for people trying to find us the first time. We handle all sorts of glass here. It’s a job where you have to be careful every single minute because one slip means a lot of broken pieces and a big mess to clean up. We spend our days measuring, cutting, and moving heavy sheets around. It’s not a quiet place; there’s always the sound of glass being scored or the sound of the grinder in the back. We aren't a big corporation with uniforms and meetings. We’re just a local glass shop where we know our customers by name. Sometimes the shop gets a bit dusty from the cutting, and we have to keep sweeping it out. It’s hard work on the back, lifting those crates, but we’ve been doing it a long time. People from around Vadapalani know to come to us when they need something replaced or a specific size cut. We just keep things simple and focus on the glass. It’s a busy little spot in a busy neighborhood. We try to get everything finished on time so the customers don't have to wait.
