Hind Sarees

Hind Sarees is located down in the basement of the Raymond Building. You can find us on College Road, right near the government school. Being in the basement means it stays a bit cooler in the summer months, which is a nice relief from the heat outside. It can be a little hard for new people to find us if they aren't looking for the stairs, but we’ve been here for a good amount of time now. The school kids are always making a lot of noise outside during the day, so it’s never really quiet. We have stacks of sarees everywhere because the space isn't huge and we try to keep a lot of variety. It’s mostly just me and a couple of other people working here every day. We spend a lot of time unfolding and then refolding all the different fabrics after people leave. People come in from the college area mostly, and some parents from the school stop by too. It’s not a fancy place with big mirrors and bright lights everywhere. We just have some metal racks and a few chairs for people to sit on while they look through the piles. Sometimes the light bulbs flicker and we have to get the ladder out to fix them. We try to keep a good mix of stuff, whatever the local people around here like to wear for their functions. College Road is a busy place, so there is always someone walking past the building. We don't do any advertising.
