Ashok K Kothari

I am located at 7/A on Tingre Nagar Road in Karelibaug. My place is directly opposite the Rushi Mandap Hall. It’s a very easy landmark for anyone trying to find me. When there is a big event or a wedding at the hall, the whole street gets packed with cars and people, and the music can get quite loud. On those days, I just close the windows and carry on with my work. I’ve been in this spot for years and the neighborhood has grown a lot around me. My office isn't anything special to look at. It has some old cupboards for files and a heavy wooden desk. I don’t like having a polished, corporate look. I prefer it when things feel lived-in and practical. People come by to discuss their requirements, and we usually sit and talk over a glass of water or some chai. I handle everything myself, so you won't find a bunch of assistants running around here. Karelibaug is a nice area because you have everything within walking distance. Sometimes I take a break and walk down the road to get some fresh air. My clients are mostly local folks who appreciate a direct way of talking. I don't use any fancy marketing talk. I just tell people what I can do and how long it will take. It’s a very grounded way to run a business.
