About Lucky Mobile Sales & Services – Telecom in Mumbai
So this is shop number 19 over in Ramnagar on Rander Road in Kurla. We call it Lucky Mobile Sales & Services, though I don’t know if luck has much to do with it, it's mostly just hard work and greasy fingers from fixing phones. I’ve been working on electronics since I was a kid, so it made sense to set up here. The shop is always a bit of a mess with screwdrivers and tiny screws all over the place. I try to keep them in little plastic trays but they always end up on the floor. Kurla is always loud and there’s always something happening outside the door. People drop their phones in all sorts of places—water, tea, or just on the pavement—and they bring them to me to see if there’s any life left in them. I spend hours looking through a magnifying glass at circuit boards. Sometimes the repairs take longer than I expect and I have to call the customer and explain why. I sell a few new models too, but mostly it’s the service side that keeps me busy. I’ve got a small TV in the corner that’s usually on some news channel just for background noise. The air is always a bit heavy with the smell of solder and old plastic. It’s a living, and it’s right here in the middle of the neighborhood where I grew up.
