Kalpana Telecom is our shop in Indira Bazar, located at F-80. If you’ve ever been to Indira Bazar, you know it’s packed with shops and people everywhere. We fit right into that. Our space is mainly focused on mobile recharges, SIM cards, and small electronics. It’s a tiny shop, but we’ve been here long enough that people know where to find us. We get a lot of laborers and students who need their phones topped up or a cheap pair of earphones for their commute. It’s always loud outside with people shouting and rickshaws going by. We don't have time for fancy decorations; we just keep the essentials ready. My brother and I take turns sitting at the shop. Sometimes we sell a lot of memory cards, other days it’s just people asking for directions to another street. We are part of the old market culture here. We don't have a mission statement or anything like that. We just want to make enough to keep the shop going and provide for our families. It’s a busy life, and by the end of the day, we are usually pretty tired from the constant noise and the heat. But it’s good to be in the middle of everything in the bazaar. We know the other shopkeepers around us, and it feels like a little community despite the chaos. F-80 is just a small slice of Indira Bazar, but it’s our slice and we are here every day except for Sundays.
