Shushil Tent House

Running a tent house like ours in Jheel Khurenja means we are always on the move. We are located at number 400, but honestly, we spend more time out at sites than inside the shop. We have stacks of iron poles, bundles of colorful cloth, and hundreds of folded chairs piled up. It’s a lot of physical labor, loading and unloading trucks at all hours. When wedding season comes around, we barely sleep. We’ll be out at three in the morning tearing down a tent so we can move it to the next party by sunrise. The guys who work here are tough; they handle the heavy canvas and the ropes like it’s nothing. Jheel Khurenja is a tight-knit place, so most of our customers are neighbors or people who have known us for years. We don't use fancy computers to track things, just a big ledger where we write down who has what. Sometimes a pipe gets bent or a curtain gets a tear, and we have to spend the afternoon fixing it up. It’s not glamorous work, but seeing a plain empty plot turn into a bright party space is something. We just keep doing what we do, making sure the tents stay up even if it gets a bit windy. It’s been our life for a long time and we don't know any other way to work.
