Barkat Creations

Barkat Creations is located over in the Abbasiya Compound, which is part of the Rathodi area in Malad West. It’s one of those spots in Mumbai that feels a bit tucked away if you aren't looking for it. We’ve been working out of this space for some time now, and it suits us just fine. There’s always something going on in the compound, lots of different businesses doing their own thing. It can get a bit noisy with all the activity, but that’s just the way it is here. We aren't trying to be some big corporate entity; we’re just a small team trying to do right by the people who come to us. Our day usually starts early, getting the gear ready and making sure we haven't missed any messages from the day before. The walk from the main road isn't too bad once you get used to the shortcut. Sometimes the monsoons make things a bit tricky around the compound with the puddles, but we manage. We do a lot of the hands-on work ourselves because we like seeing how things turn out. It's a practical way to spend the day. No one here wears suits or anything like that. We’re usually in old t-shirts, just focusing on the tasks we have lined up. Malad is a good place to be based, even with the traffic on the link road. We just stay here, keep our heads down, and get on with it without any unnecessary fuss.
