Shree Balaji Mobile Repairing Center

Our shop is right there in the Harveer Pahalwan Market on University Road. We open up the shutters every morning around ten, and they are a bit rusty so it takes a little muscle. University Road stays busy with students and folks from Kasna 2. Inside, the counter is covered in small parts and tiny screws from phones we took apart yesterday. Sometimes it gets really hot in the afternoon, so we just keep the fan going and wait for people to bring in their broken screens. It isn't a fancy place at all. We have some plastic stools for people to sit on while they wait, but mostly they just stand and chat with us while we work. The market gets loud around lunch with all the traffic and horns. We spend a lot of time looking through magnifying glasses at motherboards. There’s a pile of old batteries in the corner we need to get rid of eventually. Sometimes someone brings a phone that fell in water and we have to tell them it might not work again, which is always tough. It’s just how it goes here. Most days are about swapping out charging ports or putting on new glass protectors for people who dropped their phones. The tea guy comes by twice a day and we take a break then. By the time it gets dark, the lights on University Road come on and we start thinking about closing up. We just keep things moving, one phone at a time. It's steady work.
