Rakesh Tak

Rakesh Tak is situated in Sojat City, specifically in the Dholiwadi Ka Bas area. It’s a local spot and everyone around here knows the neighborhood. Sojat is famous for its henna, but we just focus on our own work here. The area has that old-town feel to it. Our place isn't very big, but it’s enough for what we need to do. We don’t have any big corporate signs or anything like that. It’s just a humble workspace where we spend our days. The streets around Dholiwadi Ka Bas can be narrow, so you have to be careful if you’re driving. Most people just walk or use a cycle. We see our neighbors every morning and we usually share a bit of news before starting the day. It’s a quiet life compared to the big cities. We don't have a lot of fancy technology, just the basics that get the job done. We’ve been here for years and we know the rhythms of the city. When the festival season comes, the whole area gets very lively. We mostly keep to ourselves and focus on the tasks at hand. It’s a simple way to run a business. We don't try to be something we aren't. If you ask for Rakesh Tak in this part of Sojat, someone will point you to our door. It’s just how things work in a place like this.
