News Paper Vendor

When I went to this shop around 07 pm on 21st to buy a magazine I found him sleeping and two or three times I called him. No response and I clicked one photo and proceeded further for my works. This shop is old by 70-72 years and opened by the father of the vendor in the picture and he began assisting the former as a paper boy at the age of ten simultaneously continuing his studies.

Next day when I asked about this, with broad smile in face, he replied that this has been a routine habit of any news paper seller in India as he wakes 04 am in the morning and goes to bed at 12 midnight.That is why the tiredness and mini sleep in brief intervals.

One of the well known and oldest paper shops in Thiruvallikeni and everybody knows in the locality as Big Street Paper Shop and the man in the picture Logu is a B.Com. graduate and feels proud of his job.
