100 Ft Away from Obscurity

I live close to 100ft road, Indira Nagar, one of the most happening place in Bangalore. It’s a place nested on both sides by pubs, restaurants, branded showrooms, chic spas, fitness centers, dental clinics, Ayurveda parlours, and so on.

Usually on weekend’s I peddle around this locality or end up in any of the water holes. Each time I go around, I see a new restaurant or a shop.

Demolition Drive at 100 ft Road, India Nagar – Raising old houses
A friend of mine was telling of how 100ft road looked like a decade back. It was more of a residential layout, with houses. He remember the scene of kids playing cricket on this road. Well, how times has changed for many lives around here. Now, all those homely residential area is gone under the hammer. In it’s place are the glass and multi-storyed buildings. Corporations and big brands has taken up with flamboyant presence.

What has all these restaurants given to you?
Well a choice of facilities to dine, drink, relax and shop. Probably, modern people like you need it. But, as forty plus guy, I’m belong to the old school. I’m still the old fart who cherishes old cane chairs, friendly smiles and warm hug. It’s not that I don’t like these transformation, it’s just that it’s so quick that I can’t figure where I should stand.

Also, a grim reality of my shrinking pool of friends. In fact my social life in Bangalore is nonexistent. So, the choice is for me to build a new connection in this town. So, here, I go to meetup with people in Bangalore.

From Obscurity to Limelight!
