Madhulina Banik

My name is Madhulina Banik and my place is located at 142, S.K. Deb Road in the Lake Town area of Kolkata. I’ve been staying and working out of this address for quite some time. Lake Town is a pretty well-known part of the city, and S.K. Deb Road is right in the middle of all the noise and energy. Living in Kolkata means you get used to the humidity and the crowded streets, but there is a certain rhythm to it that I actually like. My building isn’t one of those new glass towers; it’s just a normal structure where life happens. I handle my business from here, keeping track of everything myself. The pincode is 700048, which most people around here know by heart. It’s a busy neighborhood with shops and houses all mixed together. Sometimes the rain makes the road a bit messy, but that’s just how it goes in this part of India. I don’t think there is any point in making things more complicated than they have to be. I just wake up, get to work, and try to finish what I started. You see a lot of different people passing by on the road every day. It keeps things interesting. I don’t have a flashy office or anything, just a desk and my files at 142. It works for me and it has worked for a long time. I’m usually around if someone needs to drop off a message or a letter.
