Mobile Wold

Mobile Wold is situated in Mumbai at Shukla Estate. It’s one of those places that stays busy from the moment we open. The estate has a lot going on, so there’s always people walking past the door. Inside the shop, we have glass counters filled with all kinds of phones and accessories. You’ll see rows of colorful cases hanging on the walls. We have chargers for almost every model you can think of. The air conditioning works okay, but on really hot Mumbai days, it struggles a bit. We spend a lot of time looking at small screens and tiny screws. It’s meticulous work. People come in with cracked screens and they look pretty sad about it. We just take the phone, put it on the workbench, and see what we can do. There are tools scattered around—small screwdrivers, tweezers, and magnifying glasses. It’s a bit of a mess sometimes, but we know which pile has what. Shukla Estate is a good location because it’s central. We get people from all over. The lights in the shop are bright so we can see the small parts we’re working with. It’s not a quiet place. There is always the sound of notifications going off or someone testing a speaker. We just keep our heads down and work through the pile of repairs until it’s time to go home.
