Shri Faleshwar Prasad Aushadhalay

You can find us at Grant Road, situated on the ground floor of the Asha Building within the Aditya Nakoda Enclave. It’s a busy part of the city, and being on the ground floor means we see a lot of people walking by all day long. Shri Faleshwar Prasad Aushadhalay has been around for some time, and we mostly focus on traditional medicine and health products. The enclave is a bit of a landmark itself, so most rickshaw drivers know where to drop you off. The shop isn't fancy or modern; it has more of an old-school feel with wooden cabinets and glass jars. We like it that way. It feels right for the kind of work we do. There is usually a bit of a queue in the evenings when people are coming home from work and stop in to pick up their supplies. We try to work as fast as we can, but we also like to talk to people and make sure they are getting the right thing. It’s a bit noisy with the Grant Road traffic right outside, but once you step inside, the smell of the herbs makes it feel a bit more peaceful. We spend our downtime restacking the shelves or checking the dates on our stock. It is a steady kind of life, and we have grown fond of the people who live and work around this building. We just keep going one day at a time.
