Rohit Tent House

Rohit Tent House is tucked away in Sarojini Nagar, specifically at Pillanji P-231. If you come by, you’ll see heaps of metal pipes and bundles of fabric stacked up. This isn't a showroom; it’s a working storage space. We spend a lot of our time loading things onto rickshaws or small trucks to take them to event sites. The area around Pillanji is very tight, so it’s always a struggle to get the larger poles out without hitting something. We provide tents, chairs, and some lighting for weddings and local festivals. It’s heavy work and my back definitely feels it during the busy season. We’ve got a lot of different colors of cloth, though some of them have seen better days. We don't have a formal booking system, just a thick diary where we scribble down dates and addresses. If it rains, we’re all running around trying to make sure the fabric doesn't get ruined. We’ve been at P-231 for a long time and everyone in the neighborhood knows us. When there’s a death or a marriage in the area, they usually come to us first. We don't have a fancy office with air conditioning. We just have a fan and a couple of stools. It’s a rough and ready kind of business, but we’ve managed to stay busy year after year.
