Dalla Security System

Working out of Dada Manzil in Masjid Bunder West is definitely an experience. If you’ve ever walked down Mogul Lane, you know it’s a tight squeeze with all the shops and people moving around. We are up on the 4th floor here in the Shivraj Cooperative Housing Society section of the building. It’s an old place, the kind with thick walls and narrow stairs that have seen better days. At Dalla Security System, we’ve gotten used to the rhythm of the neighborhood. The noise from the station and the market below is like a constant hum that you eventually stop hearing. It’s busy from early morning until late at night. The building itself has that classic Mumbai feel, where every inch of space is being used for something. Our office isn't very large, but we make it work with what we have. There are usually stacks of boxes near the door and a few old fans keeping the air moving. It’s not the kind of place where you’d find a fancy lobby. You just walk in and we’re right there at our desks. Sometimes the rain leaks a little near the window frame when the monsoon is heavy, so we have to move some files around. It’s just part of being in an older building like this. We spend our days answering phones and checking schedules. It’s a basic setup, honest and straightforward, just like the people who work here everyday.
