Limkar Bandhu

Limkar Bandhu is right in the middle of the action at the Yerwada Vakola Bhaji Mandai. If you know the vegetable market, you know how loud and chaotic it gets from very early in the morning. We are part of that daily rush where the trucks arrive before the sun is even up. The air in Yerwada is always filled with the smell of fresh greens and wet earth. Being in the Mandai means we are constantly dealing with the crates and the noise of people bargaining all around us. It is a family thing, so we are all used to the long hours and the way your back feels after lifting heavy produce all morning. The floor is usually a bit damp from the ice and the washing of the vegetables. We do not have fancy chairs or a quiet office, just the space we have in the market where we set everything up. Customers come through the Vakola Bhaji Mandai looking for the best picks of the day, and it is a lot of fast talking and moving things around. By the time the afternoon heat hits, things slow down a little, but there is always cleaning to do. We spend a lot of time sorting through the stock to make sure everything looks okay. It is a tough way to make a living with all the competition nearby, but it is what we do every day in this corner of Yerwada.
