Sanjay Computers

If you’ve ever been to Chenoy Trade Centre on Park Lane in Secunderabad, you know how crowded it gets. We are down on the ground floor at shop 114. It’s a tight space, but it fits everything we need. Sanjay Computers has been a part of this building for a long time. The CTC is always buzzing with people looking for parts or getting their laptops fixed. Our shop is usually filled with the sound of fans whirring and people talking over each other. There are cables tangled up behind the counters and stacks of old monitors in the corner. We spend most of our time staring at screens or taking apart keyboards. It’s dusty work, and sometimes your eyes get tired by four in the afternoon. There’s a small fan on the desk that makes a clicking noise, but we’re used to it by now. In the afternoons, the light from the corridor hits the shop front just right. We usually have a few different projects going on at once—one laptop being formatted while we swap out a power supply on another. It gets cramped when three customers come in at the same time, but we manage. Hyderabad weather can be tough, but the shop stays relatively cool. If you are walking through the ground floor, you will find us easily enough. It’s just a regular computer shop doing regular things for the local folks around Park Lane.
