Chennai: Mohammad Ali of Calicut, a Keralite, is busy selling these antique items on Besant Avenue, near Theosophical Society in Chennai.

As he narrates in the video, he sells gramophones, vintage phones, clocks, rocking chairs and more. Don’t think that because he sells antiques he is old fashioned: He is technologically advanced. He takes orders on WhatsApp and delivers the antique items, he says.
