Rented apartment looking boring, or hostel room screaming for a makeover? Hit up Rudra for dirt cheap lamps and co. From DIY plastic lights to wooden bedside lamps, this open-air dukaan (and the shop right opposite) are probably the brightest lamp shops you’ll ever see. It’s a place where kitsch and India’s love for bright hues truly comes to light. We were stunned to find those ball lights that every festival in Delhi puts out in the lawns at a mere 100 bucks. You can even find plastic lamps in bright red and yellow in the INR 150, 250 and 350 price brackets.
On the way to his shop, you’ll see a monster of a store called The Lighthouse, and right outside was a whole table dedicated to fairy lights starting at INR 35 for 10mts.
