“बुरा मत सुनो। Hear no evil” - Traditional ear cleaners of Mumbai. Mumbai accommodates all kinds of major and minor professions — even those that have little relevance today. Like traditional ear cleaning. A good section of ear cleaners in Mumbai are migrants who travelled to the city years ago from parts of the erstwhile land of the Nizam — today districts of Telangana (and adjoining districts of Karnataka) and Andhra Pradesh. The ear cleaners’ vibrant turbans, the mark of their trade, draw a lot of stares but little business. Most people are apprehensive of get getting their ears poked with untested equipment. And with the advent of cotton-swabs and ear picks, the traditional art of ear-cleaning has become obsolete.
