Su Rupa

The shop is located at 66/6, Gorakhbasi Road, right here in the heart of the 700028 area. We call it Su Rupa. It is a small place, really, tucked into the street where people are always walking their dogs or heading to the local market. The walls are painted a plain color and we have shelves that we built ourselves to hold everything we sell. It gets a bit crowded inside when more than three people walk in at once, but that is just how these old Kolkata buildings are. We don't have a big sign with flashing lights, just a simple board so people know where we are. Usually, the day goes by with the sound of rickshaws passing outside. We spend our time checking the stock and talking to the neighbors who pop their heads in just to say hello. Sometimes the electricity goes out for a bit and we just open the door wider to let the breeze in from Gorakhbasi Road. It is an honest living. We keep a ledger on the main desk and use a pen that always seems to run out of ink when you need it most. People know us by name around here. We do not try to be anything we are not. It is just a shop with things people need, run by people who live nearby and understand what the locals are looking for during their daily errands.
