Milindtambe

I am Milindtambe and I’ve been staying at Room 11 in the Shankar Bhagwan Chawl for quite some time now. Shreyas Colony is right near the Aarey Road check naka, so there is always some noise or people moving around outside. It’s a busy spot but that is just how life is here. Most days start early because the area gets crowded fast. My place is small but it serves the purpose for whatever work I need to get done. Living in a chawl means you know everyone nearby and there’s always a bit of chatter in the hallways. Sometimes the phone rings too much or the traffic outside makes it hard to focus, but you get used to it. I don’t really have a big office or anything fancy to show off. It is just me working from this room and handling things as they come. People ask for the address and I tell them to look for the colony near the check naka because everyone knows that landmark. It’s a practical setup and I don’t see a reason to change it right now. The heat can be a bit much in the afternoons but the breeze from the open areas helps. I just keep things moving, one day at a time, without making a big deal of it. It’s a simple life here in this part of Mumbai, just trying to stay busy and keep the work going.
