Creative Computers

Ameerpet is always a mess of traffic and people, and we’re right in the middle of it at 7-1-413/12. Being behind Huda Maitrivanam and near Satyam Cinema means there is never a quiet moment. Creative Computers is just a small room filled with tech. We have cables hanging from hooks and towers stacked on the floor. It’s a bit chaotic, but we know where everything is. The walk from the cinema is short, so we get people stopping in before or after a movie. It’s hot in the summer here. We have a small fan that works overtime. Sometimes the power fluctuates, which is a pain when you're mid-install. Ameerpet has that specific energy—everyone is in a hurry. We try to work fast but computers don't always cooperate. My desk is covered in half-disassembled laptops. We have a jar of screws that we’ve collected over the years. You’d be surprised how many people lose them. We drink a lot of tea from the stall around the corner. It’s not a polished showroom. It’s a workspace. There’s ink stains on the counter from refilling cartridges. We’ve been here long enough to see the neighborhood change, but our shop stays pretty much the same. Just a bunch of guys fixing electronics behind Maitrivanam. We don't have fancy furniture, just some old stools and a lot of work to do.
