Settled in his cozy shop in Vashi, filled with glittering ready-made dresses, 58-year-old Abdul Aziz Mansoori is a happy man, overwhelmed with the Supreme Court’s (SC) decision to uphold the ban on dance bars in the state. Mansoori is a tailor, who ran a successful business sewing dresses for dance bar girls before the ban.
