Dipanjali

Dipanjali is located at 48 B on BT Road, right by the PNB Building near Sinthee More. This is a very crowded part of Kolkata, and there’s always a lot of traffic outside. I’ve been working out of this space for some years now. It’s a small shop, tucked into the building where it’s a bit cooler than being out on the street. We do a mix of things here, mostly hair and basic grooming. The setup is pretty basic with some old wooden cabinets and a few chairs that have seen better days. I chose this location because so many people pass by Sinthee More every day. It’s a good spot for a business like this. We don’t have a big team, just a couple of us working through the day. Sometimes we get a rush of people all at once and the shop feels very small. We try to keep things organized but it gets messy with hair and towels. It’s just the way it goes. Most of our customers are locals who work nearby or live in the apartments around BT Road. We don't use any fancy language or try to be something we’re not. It’s just a place to get your hair done. I like the busy atmosphere of this area. It keeps the day moving fast and we get to meet all sorts of people.
