Rajdhani Pan Stall

Rajdhani Pan Stall is located right on Kalewadi V I P Road. We have been sitting at this spot for quite a long time now. It is just a small corner shop really. We open up early in the morning before the sun gets too high and we don't close until very late at night when the street finally goes quiet. Most of the people who stop by are regulars who live in Kalewadi or drivers passing through on the VIP road. We sell the usual things like sweet pan, tobacco, and some small snacks. There is a blue tarp we put up when it starts to rain which sometimes leaks a bit. The counter is made of old wood and it is a bit stained from all the years of work. We have a small stool behind the counter where I sit and watch the traffic go by. Sometimes it gets really dusty because of all the cars but we try to wipe things down when we can. We don't have any big flashy signs or neon lights. It is just a simple place for people to get their pan and have a quick chat. You can hear the sounds of the rickshaws and buses all day long. We keep the change in a small plastic box. It is a humble way to make a living and we are just used to the daily routine of the neighborhood.
