About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One foggy morning, as a delivery driver unloaded crates of spices, he swore he caught whiffs of exotic aromas wafting from Apna Bazar's open doors—scents that changed every day but never seemed quite real. Finally, one evening, a regular customer noticed that all the spices had vanished overnight. The next morning, everyone found them neatly arranged in the park across the street—each labeled with colorful signs and accompanied by small packets of freshly baked cookies. It turned out Apna Bazar was run by friendly ghosts who loved sharing their culinary secrets.
2. On an unusually quiet Sunday afternoon, while neighbors were napping and kids playing indoors, a familiar hum started coming from Apna Bazar’s loading bay. Curious neighbors peered out their windows, thinking maybe aliens had arrived. Turned out it was just a delivery driver testing his new drone for grocery deliveries—an experiment gone slightly awry.
3. In the early hours of one Friday night, while a delivery driver stocked shelves with exotic goods, a small dog from the neighborhood suddenly started barking hysterically at empty aisles. The delivery driver, puzzled by the commotion, looked around but saw nothing unusual. Suddenly, an old cat from the neighborhood appeared and began meowing excitedly, pointing its paw towards a dusty corner. The driver followed the trail of crumbs, leading him to a hidden stash of freshly baked naan bread—a secret supply for the local community. Everyone laughed it off as just another quirky Apna Bazar story.
4. In the late evening, when the store was almost empty, a delivery driver heard a soft whimper coming from the aisle with Indian spices. Curious, he followed the sound and found himself face-to-face with a small kitten, its eyes wide with fear. The delivery driver picked up the tiny creature and carried it to the customer service desk. The next morning, everyone in the neighborhood received an anonymous note: ‘Found your furry friend at Apna Bazar.’ Below was a picture of the kitten playing with some spice packets, captioned: “Apna Bazar—where even kittens get lost.”
