Abhijeet Karjolkar

My name is Abhijeet Karjolkar and you can find me at Chandrakiran Apartments. I’m in A/103, which is on the first floor. This building is right on S.V. Road in Jogeshwari West, so it’s never really quiet. If you’ve ever been to this part of Mumbai, you know how the traffic is on S.V. Road. There is always someone honking or a bus passing by. Kevnipada is a busy little pocket. I’ve been here for some time now and I’ve gotten used to the constant energy of the city. My space is just a regular flat turned into a workspace. It’s not polished or designed by some architect, it’s just where I sit and do my work. The walls could probably use a new coat of paint, and the desk is cluttered with papers. I don't see the point in making it look like a corporate office when it’s just me here. The zip code is 400102. Most days I’m just trying to stay on top of things while the city moves outside. Sometimes the rain gets really heavy and the road gets flooded, which slows everything down. I like being in Jogeshwari because everything is close by, even if it’s crowded. It’s a real place with real people living their lives. I just happen to be one of them, running my things from this apartment. It’s honest work and a simple life here.
