Popat Pundlik Bhamare

I’m Popat Pundlik Bhamare. I run my operations from X 56/14 in Vikhroli West. It's a bit tucked away, so you have to look closely to find the right door. I’ve lived in Vikhroli for most of my life, so setting up here was the natural choice. It’s a working-class area and that’s the way I like it. My office isn't anything to look at—just a few chairs, a big table, and a lot of folders. I don’t use those fancy apps or websites for everything. I still like to keep a physical ledger and write things down by hand. It feels more real that way. People around here know me as someone who just gets on with it. I don't talk much unless it's about the work at hand. Most mornings start with a walk to the office and a quick check of what needs to be done. It’s rarely exciting, but it’s consistent. I’ve had the same people coming to me for years because they know I won't give them any runaround. We just keep our heads down and do the work. The building is a bit old and the paint is peeling in some spots, but it’s home. It’s where I’ve built everything I have and I am proud of that. I usually close up around six and walk home for dinner. It is a quiet life, but it is mine and I wouldn't change it.
