'It's a family-run business and we've been working hard on it.'
The takeaway opened just over a year ago and is Umair's first in East Kilbride having previously owned business in Edinburgh.
He said: 'I've been in this trade for 25 years.
'I serve Indian food, pizzas, kebabs and we've got a lot of desserts.
'The Indian kebab is a favourite, and then the specialities and curries.'
Speciality dishes include durries such as makhani masala, masaledar and pardesi.

'We have good quality food and good service.'

He said: 'I'll be happy if we win, it will help with the growth of my business as well.
'I've not been on the street long but people like the food.'
