Mr Narendra C Joshi

You can find Mr Narendra C Joshi over in Kalbadevi. We are at Shop No 445 451. It’s a combined space. The area is Vyas 7. If you’ve been to Kalbadevi, you know it’s one of the most crowded parts of the city. There are shops everywhere and people are always rushing. Our shop is just like the others. It’s full of stuff and we don't have much room to move around. We’ve been here for years. The building is old and the wooden stairs creak. We don't use much technology. Most things are still done by hand or on paper. We have a small table and a few chairs for when people visit. It gets really hot in the afternoons. We don't have fancy air conditioning, just some old fans. People know us by name around here. We don't do any advertising. We don't even have a proper sign outside sometimes. It’s just Narendra and the daily routine. We open early and close late. That’s how it works in this market. The traffic outside is constant. You get used to the noise after a while. It’s a very humble setup. We aren’t trying to impress anyone with a polished look. We just do the work and handle the customers who come through the door. It is a very traditional way of running things in Mumbai. We just keep our heads down and get on with the day.
