Bhawani Tent House

On Ramdev Road, things are always moving, and at Bhawani Tent House, we are usually moving with them. Our work is mostly physical. We spend our days loading heavy iron frames and rolled-up carpets onto the back of the pickup truck. It is a lot of sweat and grime, especially when the sun is beating down on the road. We have a big storage space that is usually a bit of a mess with different colored fabrics and tangled ropes. We try to keep the chairs stacked neatly, but after a big event, everything just gets tossed back in and we have to sort it out later. We have been doing this for a long time, so we know which poles go where without really thinking about it. The shop is just a place where we take orders and store the gear. It isn't somewhere you come to sit and relax. There are usually stains on our clothes from the grease and dust of the job. Sometimes a customer wants a specific color of cloth that we have to dig out from the bottom of a pile. We don’t have a website or anything like that. People just know us from seeing our trucks around or hearing about us from someone else. It is a tough way to make a living, but it keeps us busy and we like being part of the local celebrations in our own small way.
