Mahalaxmi Immitation

Mahalaxmi Immitation is over at No. 186 in the Malad Shopping Center. We are quite close to Aditi Hotel, which is a good landmark if you are trying to find us in Malad West. The center is always full of people, and our little spot is just one of many, but we’ve been here for a good bit. We handle various types of imitation items, mostly the kind of things people wear for everyday or small functions. It’s a lot of work keeping track of everything because the pieces are so small. Sometimes the dust gets in from the street, and we spend half the morning just wiping down the display boxes. It’s not a quiet job. There is always the sound of people talking outside and the smell of food from the nearby hotel. We open up early and stay until the shutters go down late in the evening. Most of our day is spent untangling chains or putting rings back in their right slots after someone has looked through them. It is a bit cramped in here with all the boxes stacked up towards the ceiling, but we know where everything is. If someone asks for a specific color of stone, I usually can find it after a bit of digging in the back drawers. It’s just a normal local business, nothing too fancy. We don't have a website or anything like that, just the shop and our regular customers who keep us going day in and day out.
