Manoj Kumar Bairwa

Manoj Kumar Bairwa here. I’ve been over at Shivaji Nagar 57 for a good while now. It’s a busy spot, mostly people passing through during the day. Sometimes it gets a bit noisy with the traffic outside, but you get used to it after a few months. I usually get in early, unlock the front, and get things settled before the heat really starts to kick in. The building itself is okay, nothing too fancy, just a regular place where work happens. People sometimes ask if they’ve got the right number, and I tell them yes, this is 57. Shivaji Nagar has changed a bit since I first showed up, more shops now and less quiet space than there used to be. I spend a lot of time sitting at the desk or moving things around inside. There isn’t a whole lot to say about the setup, it’s functional and gets the job done. I keep a fan running because the air doesn't move much in the afternoons. It’s just me and the space most days. If you’re walking down the street, you’ll see the door. It’s pretty plain. I don’t go in for big signs or anything like that. Just Manoj Kumar Bairwa on the paperwork and this spot in Shivaji Nagar. It’s where I am from Monday to Saturday, usually until the sun starts going down. There is a small tea stall just a few doors down that makes decent chai. I mostly keep to myself and handle whatever comes through.
