I work out of a place called 'Arunodaya' which is on Plot No. 25 here in Akola. If you're familiar with this part of Maharashtra, you know it can get pretty hot, so I’ve spent some time making sure the office stays comfortable. It’s a straightforward setup. I don’t have any fancy decorations or high-end furniture. It’s mostly just functional stuff that I’ve collected over time. I’ve been in Akola for quite a while now. The neighborhood is mostly quiet, which I appreciate when I’m trying to focus. Being at Plot No. 25 means I have a bit of space, but it’s not a huge operation. It’s just a local business trying to do things the right way. I usually get in early before the sun gets too high. There’s a small garden area outside that I try to look after when I have a spare moment. Inside, there are just a couple of rooms where the work happens. I don’t have a big staff or a lot of complicated systems. It’s just me and a few others keeping things moving. We deal with whatever comes our way day by day. It’s a practical way to live and work. The 444004 area is home to me, and 'Arunodaya' is where I feel most productive. It isn't a flashy building, but it’s ours and it works for what we do. No corporate polish, just regular people working hard. We like the pace here in this city.
