Mazgaon is a busy place to have a shop. We are at Famous Auto Parts, located at Shop No 10 in the Vaishali Building. If you walk down the street, you’ll see us easily because of all the metal bits and boxes piled up near the entrance. The shop is narrow and goes back quite a way. We have shelves that reach all the way to the ceiling, filled with parts for all sorts of vehicles. Half the time, I’m on a ladder looking for something someone asked for. It’s a bit dark inside because the building is old and the sunlight doesn't reach the back. We have a couple of tube lights that flicker sometimes. My hands are usually a bit greasy from handling the parts, so the paperwork usually has a few thumbprints on it. That’s just part of the job. People come in looking for things they can't find anywhere else, and we usually have it tucked away somewhere. The Vaishali building is a well-known landmark, so people don't get lost finding us. We have a small stool for customers to sit on if they have to wait, but most people just stand and chat while we look for their parts. The noise from the street is constant, with horns and people shouting, but after a few years, you just stop hearing it. It’s a simple, honest business.
