Hitesh Lankapati

I'm Hitesh and I work out of number 13 in Rustampura. It’s an old part of town and the streets are a bit narrow, so you have to be careful if you're driving a big car. I've been at this spot for a few years now. The building is nothing special, just a standard place where I can get my work done without too much distraction. Most mornings I’m here by eight. I open up the shutters, sweep the front, and get started. It’s mostly just me here, though sometimes a cousin or a friend stops by to help out when things get busy. We don’t have a fancy sign or anything. Most people just know the address. Rustampura is a lively place, especially in the evenings when everyone is out getting snacks. I like the noise, it makes the day go by faster. The room is a bit cluttered because I tend to keep everything I might need for later. It’s not the kind of place you’d find in a magazine, but it works for what I do. I don't really have a big speech about what I do. I just show up every day and do the tasks that come my way. If you’re looking for 13 Rustampura, just ask anyone around the corner and they’ll point you to the door. I’m usually there until the evening when the sun sets.
