A R Hari

Banashankari 2nd Stage is where I spend most of my days. My place is right on the 11th Main, at 27th Cross, house number 73. It’s a residential neighborhood with lots of trees and old houses. I’ve lived and worked around here for a long time. People just know me as A R Hari. I don't have a big staff or a corporate office setup. It's mostly just me handling things from a small room that looks out onto the street. You can see the people walking their dogs or kids coming home from school. My desk is usually covered in notebooks and pens because I still like writing things down by hand. It’s easier to remember that way. I do a bit of this and a bit of that, mostly helping people out with various services they need in the area. It’s a quiet kind of life and I like it that way. I don't go for big advertisements or try to sound more important than I am. If someone needs help, they usually just drop by or give me a call. Sometimes we sit on the porch and talk for a while before getting down to business. That’s just the way things are done in this part of Bangalore. The days go by pretty fast when you’re part of the neighborhood fabric like this. I’ve seen the streets change but the vibe stays the same for me here.
