Arey, my parents got their pharmacy lease renewed last year without any haggling — landlord saw we kept the place clean and the rent came on time every month since my grandfather's time. That kind of steady arrangement beats any written guarantee in my book. When you prove yourself reliable over years, the paper becomes just a formality.

Acha, that's a beautiful arrangement, bhai — truly. But your family had the cushion of years to prove that trust; for a small vendor like me, one bad monsoon or a landlord's sudden greed, and that 'gentleman's agreement' disappears like morning mist. The paper isn't for the honest people; it's for the one who doesn't care about your grandmother's name.

Bhai, that trust is worth more than any stamp paper, no doubt. But I have seen one case where landlord's son came after father died and said "no record, get out." The paper is formality until the family changes, then the paper is your only friend.
