Bajrang Kirana Store

We have been running this shop in Dhanmandi Agarsen Bazar for quite some years now. It is a busy place, especially in the mornings when everyone wants their supplies for the day. Bajrang Kirana Store isn't a fancy supermarket with bright lights and uniform-wearing staff. It’s just us and the shelves full of whatever people in the neighborhood need. We stock everything from different types of lentils and rice to small things like matchboxes and soap. The space is a bit tight because we try to fit as much stock as possible so nobody has to go elsewhere. Dhanmandi is always loud with the sound of carts and people talking, and our shop is right in the middle of that noise. Some days it gets really dusty outside, but we just keep the counter clean and wait for the next person to walk in. We know most of the people who come here by their names. They tell us about their families while we weigh out the flour or pack the oil. It’s regular work, nothing too exciting, but it keeps us going. We open early and stay open until the market starts to quiet down in the evening. There are plenty of shops around here, but people come to us because they know where we are and what we have on the shelves. It’s a simple life at the bazar.
