If you know Bhawani Peth, you know it’s a tight-knit area. Our shop, Shree Mobile, is at number 229 and it’s been our second home for a long time. It’s a small space, so we have to be smart about where we put everything. We’ve got shelves stacked with boxes and a workbench in the corner that’s seen better days. We do a lot of hardware work here. Replacing screens is probably our most common job. It’s delicate work but we’ve got steady hands from doing it so often. We also sell used phones sometimes when someone wants to upgrade and leaves their old one with us. We check them thoroughly before putting them out for sale. People come in for small things like a new pair of earphones or just to ask why their phone is acting slow. We don't have a fancy script we follow. We just listen and see what we can do. The street outside is usually crowded with people and vehicles, so the shop is a bit of a refuge for us. We drink a lot of tea and talk to whoever walks in. It’s not a glamorous job but it pays the bills and we like the people around here. We just try to be honest about what can be fixed and what’s a lost cause. That's just the way it goes at number 229.
