Vandana Malhotra

My name is Vandana Malhotra and I work out of my apartment, A/202 in Gazdar Apartment. If you know the Juhu area, we’re located right next to the JW Marriott Hotel. It’s a very well-known part of town, which makes it easy to give directions. I’ve lived in Kalina and Juhu for years, and setting up my work here just felt natural. It’s a residential building, so it’s got a very personal, homey feel to it. I don't have a big staff or a corporate office. It’s just me handling my daily tasks and meeting people when they drop by. The area is always busy with tourists and locals going to the beach or the hotel, but inside the apartment, it’s usually quite peaceful. I like the balance of being in the middle of a famous neighborhood while having a quiet space to work. I don't really go for fancy titles or mission statements. I just do my work the best way I know how. Sometimes the building elevator is slow, or the traffic on the main road is a mess, but that’s just life in Mumbai. Most of my clients are people who live nearby or have known me for a long time. It’s a very straightforward arrangement. I appreciate the simplicity of working from home and being part of this community.
