Paras Harmonica Industries

You can find Paras Harmonica Industries over at Kishore Estate, right on 2-Bhaktinagar Station Road. We’ve been making and fixing things here for a long time. It’s a noisy place with all the tuning and testing we have to do. Every day involves a lot of sitting at workbenches with small tools, making sure the reeds and the keys are just right. It’s specialized work, and not many people do it this way anymore. The station road is always busy, so we get a lot of dust blowing in, but we try to keep the instruments clean. The workshop is a bit cluttered with wood scraps and metal bits. We don’t have a fancy front office or a receptionist. If you come by, you’ll probably find us with our sleeves rolled up in the middle of a project. We don't spend money on big ads because the musicians know where we are. Sometimes we spend hours just trying to get one note to sound right. It can be frustrating, but it’s satisfying when it finally works. We’ve had the same neighbors in the estate for years, so it feels like a little community. We just keep our heads down and focus on the work. It’s a traditional trade and we’re happy to keep it going here in Bhaktinagar. It's just what we do to get by and keep the music going.
