Ansari Shama Praveen

We are located in the Vadodara Sahar area. It’s a big part of the city, and we’ve been around here for quite some time now. The streets can get pretty crowded, especially on market days, but that’s just part of living and working in this city. Ansari Shama Praveen is the name we go by. There isn’t a specific building name on the address, which sometimes makes it a bit of a puzzle for new people, but the locals know the way. It’s a lively neighborhood with a lot of noise and color everywhere you look. I usually start my day by opening up the shutters and letting some air in, though the dust from the street comes in with it. The work we do is steady, and we don’t really try to make it seem like more than it is. It’s just honest labor in a part of town that has been home for years. There’s a certain rhythm to life here in Vadodara Sahar that you don't find in the newer parts of the city. People stop to talk, and there’s always someone drinking tea or arguing about the news nearby. My desk is a bit cluttered with papers and old pens, but I know where everything is. It isn't a corporate setup by any means, just a room where we stay busy throughout the day and into the evening. It gets dark early inside so we put on the lights.
