Changing prices for sex work in Sonagachi, a Kolkata red-light district (from the Naked Anthropologist)

This story from The Times of India is about Sonagachi, a very large red-light district in Kolkata, India, and home to the Sonagachi sex workers’ cooperative. Like the story from Malaysia the other day, this one gives financial details on how a commercial sex economy works and adapts to a recession. Note the complex structures and the different ways workers may depend on intermediaries. It’s not a simple economy. NB: 1000 rupees = 14.7 euros

Slowdown bug hits sex workers in city

Devjyot Ghoshal, 10 July 2009

Kolkata: The economic slowdown has affected nearly every profession, and the world’s oldest is no exception. Thousands of commercial sex workers in Sonagachi have been singed. A contracting clientele, coupled with spiralling real-estate prices in the area, has driven them to reduce rates and spend more time on the streets.

The worst affected are the approximately 1000 Category A workers, who charge minimum of Rs 1,500 per hour. Restricted from going on to the streets to lure customers and completely dependent on pimps to get business, these workers are slashing their rates.

“Till a few years back, we got five customers a day. Now, it is rare to get three. As a result, Category A girls, who charged up to Rs 8,000 per hour earlier, now hardly ask for more than Rs 4,000,” said Rekha, herself a Category A worker.

For Sonagachhi’s elite, the paucity of patrons is especially difficult to contend with, as most either have to pay a flat 50% to their mistresses or shell out a substantial amount for renting a room.

With profits plunging, those under mistresses are increasingly moving out of that system, despite room rents having doubled in five years. High-end rooms in Sonagachi can now cost anything between Rs 10,000 to Rs 15,000 per month.

“Since Category A girls can’t leave the brothels to get customers and have to give half of whatever they earn to the mistresses, many are moving into Category B, where they pay a fixed amount,” Rekha explained.

While the services of about 2,000 Category B women in Sonagachi start at Rs 500 per hour, a customer has to pay 25% of the entire charge to the pimp separately. Additionally, the sex worker has to pay the landlord a commission per client on top of a pre-negotiated sum for booking a room.

Starved of clients and facing incremental hikes in the prices of contract rooms, Category B workers are being forced to charge less and work longer hours.

“Earlier, few Category B girls used to stand on the streets before 4 pm. But now, you can find us standing from as early as 10 am. We are having to work much harder,” said Shanta, another worker. Some Category B girls are also charging less to build long-term relationships with customers. “We have to depend on our existing customers to come more often. Giving a discount of Rs 100 is hardly uncommon. It hasn’t been this bad since I started over a decade ago,” she adds.

In recent years, the steady movement of women into the area from the districts and elsewhere has resulted in a space crunch. Consequently, landlords are being able to hike prices at will, while the women must either conform or stop working.

“Though new girls keep coming here, the space available is limited. Under the contract system, one room can be used by up to three workers. Still, the rents are constantly increasing,” says Kohinoor. “And if the landlord can’t hike the rent, then we are charged for other facilities. Keeping a television costs Rs 700 a month and a mobile phone charger Rs 500,” she added.

There is little optimism lost, however. “As long as there are men in this city, there will be business for women here. After all, this is Sonagachhi,” declared a sex worker.

    Fascinating thanks Laura. 8000 rupees an hour in Kolkata ???? Forced to drop price to R4000 ? WOW. If this isn’t a misprint sex workers everyhere need to know what a woman has or does to command such prices.

  2. Saptarshi

    can any body tell me about the rates of the girls in Neelkamal building (sonagachi) and quality of the girls?iam thinking to visit this month.

    Scrolled through these comments hoping to find one to redeem the rest. No luck. Every one of you make me sick. Kindly remove yourselves from the global gene pool….as soon as possible – India would be better off without you.

    Don’t go to Neel Kamal. If u book a girl for overnight, they will throw u out after an hour or so. they will demand even ur ATM card as well. best option in sonagachhi is u choose and avail a street woman urself and don’t take any help from any pimp. don’t carry any smart card. some common building there are neel kamal, prem kamal, prem bandhan, ganga jamuna, night lovers etc. all these buildings are heavily crowded by pimps. first they will ask u very less commission. most of these brothels are have north-indian delhi based girls. pimps at first will try to act very healpful. but after sometime they will show u their original cunning nature. Avoid any pim in sonagachhi. Bengali girls in “Nanda ranir bari” is somewhat OK. But i still insists that u do not go to these brothels only hearing the name. be bold. select ur own girl.

  12. Pratim Bose

    rates in neel kamal for an avarage looking girl per hour is about 1.5k to 2k. u need to bargain. be bold. most of the girls are not so good looking as people say about neel kamal. but some girls are indeed very young about 18 – 20 years.

    for overnight they will charge around 3.5 k to 5 k. (they may start from 15k but u have to manage it). Best option is not go to any pimp. Select a girl urself.

  13. Pratim Bose

    u can try some other area in kolkata as well. like watgunj in khidirpore, kalighat, etc. but quality of girls is poor. beware of hijras. some are actually robbers. after u book them, they will blackmail u that if u do not pay more then they will start shouting in public.

  14. Pratim Bose

    U can not judge best among 50k women. But if u want beautiful girls with decent nature and u don’t want to be troubled or mishandled by rough pimps then a good choice is the brothel called “nanda ranir bari”. It is simple, but Bengali girls there are nice (not very amazing) and u will be safe. Vis-a-vis you can try other girls inside sonagachhi of ur own choice. but don’t fall in the hands of rough pimps. Do not carry any ATM or Credit card with u.

    Most of the girls and pimps in other brothels are very rough in nature. they want the session to be finished very quickly (even though u book them for a long time). they may throw u out as well. So, if u are visiting any non-bengali (north indian) brothel then be bold. Best of luck.

  15. aniruddha

    how can I go to sonagachi from howrah station? can I easily locate “nanda ranir bari” in sonagachi?

  16. Pratim Bose

    address of the brothel “nanda ranir bari” is

    12, Abinash Kabiraj Street, Kolkata.

    It is near neelkamal (hardly 60 – 70 feet). Most of the girs are bengali. It is a safe place anyway but still I insist that u keep ur eyes open and do not give ur cell number to anybody (girls or pimps may ask to make a call from ur cell, they also say that it is very urgent – but u do not give ur cell or number). This brothel is also known as nanda ranir flat.

  17. Pratim Bose

    i am posting a rough road map of sonagachhi for the mongers. it is in text format. if u can’t see it properly then copy this map and paste it to notepad. set the font to bookmans old style and size 12. set wordrap on if required. then u can clearly see this map.

    cheers –

    Dude, mostly police harassment / raid starts from afternoon onwards. u can visit brothels at noon time from 11 am – 3 pm. From my personal experience i can say that noon time is safe (regarding police). but anytime u go except morning u will face crooked pimps and elderly women who can force u to take a chik of their choice. so go along main streets of the area. do not enter any blind lane. just ignore them and don’t talk to them. if u are walking then do not stop around them. talk to the girl u like directly. rate for avarage girls is Rs 150 – 200. take ur condoms with u (at least two).

    so enjoy ur time buddy !!

  19. saha

    In the morning time, can I get good chicks there? can you give me brief direction of the best area at sonagachi? I have a road idea of there. So brief idea can help me to access there. What about the chinky? Is there any other good place in kolkata?

  20. ARMAAN

  21. Rupak Dutta

    Some incapable persons have made an entry here in this post it seems. Since they do not have the stick under their underware, that’s why they are jelous of other persons who are capable of sex. So just ignore these folk.

    well, abinash kabiraj street has pos brothels, where as u may get ordinary borthels in durga charan mitra street, imambux lane and elsewhere.

  32. sanjay gupta

    visited Kalighat for a girls and paid rupees 300 for an hour. the girls was good in nature and cooperative. The deal was the good one.

  33. sanjay gupta

    Sometimes in April, 2009, I visited Kolkata and also visited Sonagacchi . I was charged Rs.600 per girl for an hour. The girl was very nice and cooperative also. I was satisfied by the girl in all respects. Keeping in view the cooperation and nice attitude of the girl at Sonagacchi, I intend to repeat my tour to Kolkata as and when found possible. In comparison to Mumbai, Kolkata girls are nice and cooperative and non-fraudulent. Once, in 2010, I visited Mumbai and and a fraud took place and almost all of my money was taken away by the pimp in collusion with the sex worker. So try to avoid Mumbai brothels and prefer Kolkata’s sex workers in the area of Kalighat

  34. taylor

    those of u who sunk so low, to the point where u have to PAY a girl to have sex with u, shows how much u can get laid. Suck up ur sad excuses for balls and take them elsewhere.

    Obviously when you gotta go to the prostitutes, nobody wants u around. sorry u poor bastards.

  35. Terry

    I really do not understand for what reasons there are few people who behave as if they are very pure at heart and do not think of having sex with a gal apart from his wife or gal friend…dude…if you are so pure then what the fuck are you doing out on this website and posting your comments for….stop giving all these bull shit craps and excuses and say that you do not have balls to go there and help those gals out there…whom people like us have forced to come to the business…

    Madarchod…jab ladki ko ghar me lakar chodega tab sab thik hai…par jab bolla jayega ki us jagah pe jakar dekh ki kaisa hai wahan pe..tab guthli sukh jati hai…

  36. kabir

    Guys, never visit night lovers, premkamal, neelkamal, ganga jamuna, this building generally have agrabally & marwari beautiful girls, but their behaviour is very rude & they like Marwari & muslim guys only.if you visit take only Nepali, Bangladesi Muslim girls, they are beautiful aslo & they will entertain you properly.

  37. kabir

    beautiful busty Marwari girls generally charges RS. 4,000/- per hour, but you will not get ur money’s worth. Take a young Nepali girls Rs. 200/- per hour. Saree clad busty Mausi/ Bhavi’s available Rs. 100/- per hr , but they will satisfy you, do everything 4 u.

  38. kabir

From her he came to know how she reached to sonagachi.At the age 17 yrs. she married to a fisherman, he came to house after 7-8 days after fishing.When he was not in house, her 50 yrs. Father-in-Law raped her regularly. One day due to inhuman torture she left the house, reach to parental house, where her elder brother & bhavi stays. Her Brother was also Fisherman came to house after 7-8 days of fishing. Incidently her bahvi’s father came to their house, when her brother was not in house. That day her Bhavi’s 50 yr. father raped her in front of her bhavi. Her bhavi forced her to marry her father. She stays with her bhavi’s father for a month, after that he sold her to Sonagachi through a lady pimp.

    How can all these people be so low? How can you let your own country, India suffer from this? Do you not understand that each one of you is responsible for a dehumanized soul? A women is a mother, a sister, a wife a friend. When she is none she is a whore. As men what if your sister, daughter or your mother was in situations like this. Do you not care. Imagine how many men come and go out of their bodies everyday. They are so used up and lifeless. They are either in their position because they are born into it, sold into it, put themseleves into so as to help their familes, kidnapped into it, or theyre minds are so mutated that they have come to accept this as a norm and continue this as a ritual. Sex is an intimate love between two souls. Sex alone is NOT love. If you think so you are looking in all the wrong places. Sex is accepted under Gods eyes only in a devoted marriage. Boys and girls who are not adults should not be having sex. Their age to learn so that they will be wise enough to help the country and world one day, through many little things. You may be wondering why I am wasting my time here and writing this. You may be wondering who am I to say all this to you. I am a proud Indian living in the U.S. with tremendous nationalism. I love India so much. Why dont you let our country survive. Why dont you restore our country’s pride. Here many people say many things about India and distort the beauty it holds deep done. The majestic India it once was, so kingly and powerful that outsiders came in search of it from all over. Jai Hind. How can I tell the that what they say is false? Each one of you can help India as a whole. The future lies in your hands. At remember at the end of the day you are what you are. You are what you do. You are the change you want to see. You are only what YOU make of yourself. At the end of your life you will face God, whoever he may be. You will pay for the wrong you have done in the world you were brought to make right. I am only saying this out of the love for my country. You may refuse this and regard it as unimportant or you may change India, others by first changing yourself. Peace be with you, and our Mother India.

    MUSLIMS ( 40 to 60 yrs.) GENERALLY VISITED AT SONAGACHI, they like to see HINDU girls NAKED & Like to fuck them like a beast.This information is collected from HINDU girls of Sonagachi.

  54. Rupak Dutta

    Mongers, do not fall in the trap of some cheats who present themselves as prostitutes. I have heared so many incedents about these. Girls stand near Hazra crossing, society cinema and elsewhere are organized with a criminal gang. They will tell u that they have a safe place to do sex. Then they will call a taxi. The driver is also a part of this gang & number plate may be false. In the road they will rob u. So beware of these cheats. If any prostitute asks u about taxi or ATM card them better u avoid her.

    Brothels in sonagachhi or massage parlours in alipore are relatively safe. at least u can trace an address.

  55. kanchan

    Sonagachi is a very good place ,so i love sonagachi & i invite all the Gentelmen in our country came here and chillout your body once a time in your life

    You guys are sick! sick! sick! the article reveals the ugly trade of prostitution and how it can change a firl’s life forever when she is is exploited because she was found in un-negotiable circumstances. Instead of understanding the senstivity and the cruelty of this act, you Bast****s are exactly propoagating this trade and have the audacity to go on a public forum on an active discussion of finding prostitutes.

    For the first time, I feel ashamed to be an India. Deplorable is more like it. You guys have not only shown how base and humiliating you can all be, but how utterly inhuman. guys like you would not even spare a raped woman who needs help. Despicable- Please take yourself off this site and do us all a favour, shave your head, sit on a donkey and parade the street saying : I am an ass, I need redemption” and still it shall not be enough.

  65. Debayan

    even i am also ashamed to be an indian and i totally agree with natasha….. has anyone ever thought what are the problems that are faced by all these innocent girls? does anyone know what humiliation they might have faced when they were at a young age?? Probably no one knows….. u guys only deserve one single word and that is moth** fuc**r….. there are many girls who fall prey to the human traficking every year…. these girls are also having some life… but due to some sexual satisfaction their full life is spoiled…. incredible to think that we r in a developing country… can these girls get an employment somewhere??? the answer is no…. untill and unless our mentality changes human traficking will go on…..

So.. pls. let others to choose sex for money..

  68. vrind

    i want name & address of some massage/beutyperler where callgirls are available or service is povided by women. and what is the rate?

    “Prostitutes are the victims of the capitalist society as all the workers are universal prostitutes of the capitalist society” . … Karl Marx

    “Woman are the nigger of the world” ….John Lennon

    Prostitutes are not criminal nor they are bad they are just the victims of the circumstances. They might be our mother, sister, friend or girlfriend. They are simply human too…

    Although they are so many so called cultured woman in the Indian society who are belower than even prostitutes who offer their sex for promotion, advantages and money.

    Even in Indian society marriage is a form of a sophisticated prostitution where money and wealth is being valued rather than love. Where man and woman both are measured by wealth, as in the form of profession for man or dowry for woman. But all we know that there is always an exception.

    It is a shame for humanity and manhood for purchasing sex from a woman, as we purchase our daily commodities by some money. They are not beer or wine bottles. As we drink and throw in the bin.

  72. chandu

    sonagachi is no safe for every one. the pemps took all money by cinecreate. althow I paid the contractual money.

  73. kabir

    visitors of Sonagachi are generally Criminals, bribe takers like Govt. Officials ( who earn the money without providing any service). Hard earner never went to Sonagachi.Those who have huge money, they went there for enjoyment starting from Naked Dance, Sucking etc. Girls r from poor family, to earn huge money in less time they compromise.A maidservant can earn only Rs. 2000/- p.m., so they leave the job to go Sonagachi, where they earn at least 15000/-p.m. to 30,000/-p.m.They get only 1/3rd of their total earning ( 2/3rd gone for room rent, pimp, police & gunda tax). I meet with a Bangladesi Muslim girl, who worked at MUMBAI as a maid servant in a Muslim family. when she enters as maidservant, she was just 15.After 6 months her Muslim 50 yrs. old babu raped her, when nobody in the house. She complain to babu’ wife, but she says, don’t say to anybody.After that everyday her 50 yrs. OLD Govt. Servant babu raped her.after 3 months she left the maidservant’s job & joined Sonagachi to earn more for the same job.
    Another 18 yrs. Bengali girl, worked at Saltlake as a Maidservant in a marwari Family.Babu’s College going Chotabhai everyday night squeezes her boobs for last 2 yrs. after that she left the job joined sonagachi to earn more.

    How can all these people be so low? How can you let your own country, India suffer from this? Do you not understand that each one of you is responsible for a dehumanized soul? A women is a mother, a sister, a wife a friend. When she is none she is a whore. As men what if your sister, daughter or your mother was in situations like this. Do you not care. Imagine how many men come and go out of their bodies everyday. They are so used up and lifeless. They are either in their position because they are born into it, sold into it, put themseleves into so as to help their familes, kidnapped into it, or theyre minds are so mutated that they have come to accept this as a norm and continue this as a ritual. Sex is an intimate love between two souls. Sex alone is NOT love. If you think so you are looking in all the wrong places. Sex is accepted under Gods eyes only in a devoted marriage. Boys and girls who are not adults should not be having sex. Their age to learn so that they will be wise enough to help the country and world one day, through many little things. You may be wondering why I am wasting my time here and writing this. You may be wondering who am I to say all this to you. I am a proud Indian living in the U.S. with tremendous nationalism. I love India so much. Why dont you let our country survive. Why dont you restore our country’s pride. Here many people say many things about India and distort the beauty it holds deep done. The majestic India it once was, so kingly and powerful that outsiders came in search of it from all over. Jai Hind. How can I tell the that what they say is false? Each one of you can help India as a whole. The future lies in your hands. At remember at the end of the day you are what you are. You are what you do. You are the change you want to see. You are only what YOU make of yourself. At the end of your life you will face God, whoever he may be. You will pay for the wrong you have done in the world you were brought to make right. I am only saying this out of the love for my country. You may refuse this and regard it as unimportant or you may change India, others by first changing yourself. Peace be with you, and our Mother India.

    Hi, everybody! i want special hot sexy beautiful Bengali girl/lady jo mere zism ki bhukh shaant kar sake, puri raat masti kare. Puri raat ka kya charge hoga ,police ka koi tension nahi hona chahiye. Ajmer se Sonagachi jaane ka train rute kya hai

  79. Kual singh

    There is no police tention. you show yourself a ordinary person, If you show that you are rich person.then girls can charge huge money for WORK. Take only money you want to spent, do not take more money, beacaue many girls take your full money. Choose girls only age under 21-22. Old ladies has been clever.

    At present rate is 100 Rs. for one trip, you can spend 500 Rs. for one and two hours, it depends upon your bargaining.

    Girls are supportive nature but care is nessary. Some girl can empty your pocket.

    Be naked and get girl naked and enjoy. This is also one test of life but do occationally.

  84. Ratnesh

    Does All the workers do this ,just because they are intangled? Or all the gals were born in this and had no choice rather than to join this tradition.
    Custom of keeping mistresses is age old in our country. Had it been a stigma on the society then why govt issues licences for the same?? Why not a important revolutin like ‘satyagrah’ has taken place to fight this issue.Guys just not get there to erase all frustrations…. many go there ..pay bucks and come back.Just not becoz they are cheated but they attain satisfation doin it..which cannot be understood by immature and ficlkle brains. And even if somebody does it ,its not a sin of any kind,Coz law allows it, history evidents it,and there is a support released to the needy in terms of money which balances the mutual need.

  85. Tony

    Sonagachi is jannat for all the 20-25 yrs old . So make it pure. Some cheater are choice this place to cheat . So come and give nicely to them and its warned all the cheaters

  90. Debojit Das

    A couple of minutes ago, i just finished reading ur comments and it seems to me how shameful and cruel we r in nature. The article indicates about the bad effects of prostitution, the worst life of the sex worker, and i find all the guys except(natasha & debayan) log into these sites for further info to laid to night. I like to ask each of those mother fucker only one question——
    “How will u feel if ur mother is a whore? Will u going to laid with her to night?”
    I think u r.
    And another fuckwit posted his comments before me with a name of “Sree” though he is not aware of the exact meaning of the title, suggested us not to visit this site…..and i suggest u guys to leave this site immediately else i have to kick on ur ass to leave it.
    U guys only deserve one thing—–a huge kick on ur butts…..fucking assholes.
    Thank u natasha & debayan for posting ur beautiful comments…..

    Random notes

    1) Pritam: Funniest and wicked sense of humor, loved your blogs.

    2) For the benefit of hypocrite females who took the pains to visit this site

    Dear ignorant hypocritical morons:

    Most of the people who have been posting here have never been to or will never be visiting the brothels of Sonagachi. They are just allowing their raging hormones a free run in the cyber-space. And even if they did, its none of your business. For your information though many of the girls are forced, duped or trafficked into prostitution, many so called “hip” girls opt for it to make quick bucks. Its known fact that you can even hire models and small-time actresses etc. for a very high price(just visit the classified ads). So, the thing is that the world’s oldest profession just lives on. It serves as an important buffer that keeps the violence rate against women lower ( Male:Female ratio is unfavorable to women)

  95. rocky

    BEST COMMENT IS BY RAVEN …… TRUE !!!!!

    WELL MOST GUYS WANT SEX AND THEY OFTEN DONT WANT THE HASSLE OF A RELATIONSHIP ….. SO WATS THE ANSWER?? THEY ARE NOT RAPISTS EITHER ….. THEY JUST WANT SOME GOOD TIME WITH SOM1 WHO AGREES TO HAVE HAVE SEX FOR MONEY …..

    CLEARLY THE PRUDES OUT HERE DONT REALLY UNDERSTAND THE SITUATION…..

  102. shiks

    one of my friend told me that she will be going to sonaghachi to see the problem of prostitution in India and work towards this problem. so i thot to see what actually sonaghachi is. i opened the google and typed sonaghachi. the first link i got is this. so i opened it. But aftr readings the comments on the given article, am flabbergasted. Rather than looking at the seriousness of the prostitution, guys are sharing their experiences about their visits to various red light areas and are asking for the rates(and that too using such weird words). This is really shameful on their part. and iam thankful to those who r against prostitution.Also, the people who have posted against the shameless people seems DRAMA to them. I request all the guys to GET EDUCATED.
    Rather than giving poor justifications of your wrong doing, i would like you to look into the mirror and ask yourself “who u r? and wat good hav u done for others in your lifetime?” Try to see the other facet of prostitution and also think wat if one day u go to some brothel and it wil be you sister standing infront o you. Try to see from a girls perspective too. I wish all o you to reborn as a girl and become prostitutes.

    Hi Friends, Prostitution is the oldest trade known to our civilization. It may be dealt with women or men (In rare). Married couples forms a family, enjoy sex along with other pleasures of sharing a life, sorrow, joy, happiness, peace, tensions and raises children to takeover the charge. A good couple always respect each others needs, choices and dislikes. And here the point rise! If the wife doesnot agree in any terms of her husband or vice versa, he or she tends to other person to get off the passion. Only the few persons with very strong moral can get rid of such desires under such situations. For example, if a wife denies a certain position/act, the husband may tend to a woman who offers to do it, against money or other benefits, and the PROSTITUTION starts. It may or may not be so that the woman is offering it willfully. Today, men also found to be in same act as women but not so much in numbers. But here in the brothels, girls are forced to offer themselves to the clients, and it is not acceptable at all. Once a girl indulge in this trade (Better say it Racket), she is socially dead. She is not accepted by her family any more. Even if the family accepts, the society does not. For this reason, the trade flourishes and the racket strenthens. If we can arrange a settlement for the girls, who are not willing to continue in this trade, the matter may take a little time to get under control. The women, unwilling to leave the trade has various reasons, like they earns better money and leads a better standard of life than in any other profession, or by tradition they are in the profession. It is common that the families get regular money from these girls’ income whom they destituted. Some families are really dependent upon their girls’ income, and leads a good social life. It is ironic! Even though the girls are not expected/ allowed to be seen in any family functions like marriages, pujas etc. Recently some girls, rescued from some such odd places, are given settlement by a NGO for running the Canteen of the Kolkata Police Head Quarter at Lalbazar. This could happen for the then kind Commissioner of the kolkata Police. Now the girls got some confidence, awareness and self respect. And that is all to come out of the darkness of life! Let us wish, same kind of activity would increase, and we can save our girls to be exploited. Imagine, would you be here, reading this text if your mother didnot want to conceive you? Remember, sex is very vital part of a human’s life, but it is not everything of a human’s life. Love and affection can not be substituted by sex only. But sex helps to grow love and affection. Please don’t treat the women like a dustbin. Only a woman can lend her womb to get your child see the daylight.
