Prem Vilas Kirana & General Store

Our store is situated on VKIA Road No 14, right on Sikar Road. It’s number 41337 if you’re looking for the exact spot. We have been here for a good while, serving the people who live around here or those passing through the industrial area. It’s a typical kirana shop. We have sacks of rice, sugar, and jars of candies on the counter. The shelves are packed with everything from soap to spices. It gets a bit messy sometimes when a new shipment arrives and we have boxes sitting in the middle of the floor. I usually open up early in the morning because that’s when the milk delivery comes. Most of my day is spent weighing out items or looking for change in the drawer. It’s not a big supermarket, so I know most of the people who come in by their first names. We talk about the weather or the price of onions while I bag their groceries. Sometimes I forget to restock something and have to apologize to the regulars. The dust from Sikar Road is a constant battle, so I’m often seen with a duster in my hand. It’s a simple, honest way to make a living. Nothing too complicated, just keeping the pantry items ready for whoever needs them today. Even when the road outside is noisy with trucks, inside it feels like a familiar neighborhood hub where people just come to get what they need for dinner every single day.
