Gunny Bhai selling shoes on streets of Mumbai, had chance to become his first customer for day early morning :) got free Tea from him.
I was on my way to Pune from Mumbai CST railway station. Unfortunately, missed the train so then next train was after 2 hrs, so I just walked out from the railway station and then took a bus and thought I will do some shopping on streets some say it as Window shopping or street shopping I went to Mohammed Ali road.
There are really beautiful shops there and some local vendors also sit outside on footpath and they sell everything from A to Z, so it was very early in the morning so I found one uncle whose name is "Gunny Bhai" some folks says him "cha-cha" it means uncle here in India.
Awesome! Shoe shop.
I found some beautiful shoes there, so just bought it from him and I was also his first customer for the day, there was a local tea vendor who goes to each and every shop and they call them "Chai-Wala" the "cha-cha" > Gunny Bhai said "beta chai loge kya?" ( Would you like to have tea)... first I said no and then I said "Yes!".
I took a selfie with him and his shop photo, I asked him that I will be posting on Social Media and he said, Yes!
I said famous ho jaoga kya?( will I become famous), I said Yes.
Selfie with the uncle.
I have disclosed his name here in this post by talking his permission.
If you ever come to Mumbai and feel free to visit his shop and maybe you can show him this post for sure and buy him a tea or coffee or buy whatever you like from his shop.
Location: Mohammed Ali road, opp to Zakeria Masjid or also know as Bhendi Bazaar, Nearest Railway station Masjid Bunder or CST Railway Station South Mumbai.
