Khoobsurat Art Gallery

If you’re walking down Jordon Road, you might see us at Shop No 7 in the Citizen Building, Lo Andheri West. We’re right next to the Highpoint Restaurant, which is lucky because the smell of their food drifts in all day. The gallery isn’t some massive museum; it’s just a small space where we hang up various pieces of art. Some days it’s quiet, and other days we have a lot of people popping in after their lunch. We spend a lot of time rearranging the frames and wiping dust off the glass. Art can be a bit finicky to look after, especially with the humidity we get here. The lighting in the shop is okay, but we’re always fiddling with the bulbs to get them right. It’s mostly just me and a couple of others keeping the place running. We don’t talk in fancy art terms or anything like that. We just like having these things on the walls. The street outside is always noisy with cars and people heading to the station, but inside it stays relatively calm. Sometimes the floorboards creak when you walk near the back corner, but it adds character, I guess. We’ve been part of the Andheri scene for a bit now, just doing our thing and hoping the art looks good to whoever stops by. It’s a nice way to spend the day, honestly. We aren't trying to change the world, just keeping some nice things on display for the neighborhood folks to see.
