Pooja Light Decoration & Sound Service

Our place is tucked into Guljar Chowk, specifically in Kumawto Ka Bas 4. It’s more of a workspace than a regular shop. If you walk by, you’ll see bundles of wires and big speakers stacked up against the walls. We do lighting for weddings and local festivals. When there is a big event coming up, we are out late at night hanging fairy lights on houses or setting up the sound system in a public square. It’s hard work and involves a lot of climbing ladders. My brother and a couple of local boys help me carry the heavy stuff. The sound equipment needs a lot of looking after because the dust here gets into everything. We spend a lot of time cleaning the mixers and checking the cables for any frays. During the wedding season, we hardly get any sleep. We have to make sure the generator is working and that the lights don't flicker. It’s nice to see the whole street lit up when we finish a job. In the off-season, we sit in the shop and repair whatever broke during the busy months. People in the neighborhood know us well, so they just drop by the house if they need something done for a small family function. It’s a noisy business, but it keeps us busy and we’ve been doing it for a long time now. We usually have some spare bulbs lying around just in case.
