Searching a flat in Pune where my daughter would be safe

After a gang of hoodlums in Chinchwad burned down my car,
I realized that I should buy a home where my daughter, wife & car would be safe - Girish

Sakal Pimpri Chinchwad Today 3/23/2017

I am not here because I am working in Hinjewadi. I am not selfish. Distance from my office is not important for me. For me the most important thing is the safety & security of my family.

This was Girish's reply to my question - "Are you working in Hinjewadi?"

Hoping to meet some intellectually weaker section of Hinjewadi IT Engineers, I was waiting near the site offices of Saarrthi Skybay, Pristine Equilife & Royal Serene - located behind Balewadi Stadium in Mahalunge Gram Panchayat.

Almost half a day had gone, but I didn't find any exceptionally stupid Hinjewadi IT Engineer.

So, all my hopes were on this couple, who had entered the site office of Royale Serene.

"How can someone go for hunting a home - carrying half asleep 4 year daughter on a scooter - in this torturous heat?," I asked myself.

That day, I have seen many couples & young guys bent on destroying their lives by booking flats without waiting for implementation of RERA in Maharashtra.

But this couple was unique.

"If this couple continues their search like this - they may not survive to book a flat. I must talk to them now," I said to myself & waited for them.

"If you are not working in Hinjewadi then why are you in Mahalunge?, " I said & asked his permission to video record it.

I am here because some hoodlums burned down my car. Today car was their target. Who knows what they would like to destroy tomorrow? I have a small daughter. I felt very insecure. Threatened. Frightened. Living in flat in Chinchwad Gaonthan would not be safe for my daughter. I decided to shift. Decided to buy a new flat. Where there would be safety & security. Watchmans. CC Tv cameras. Reserved covered carpark.

My father came down from the hometown. He felt the same. I should not continue living in Chinchwad Gaonthan. I should look for a housing society with a proper compound wall and security guards. He offered financial assistance too.

This incident - burning down my car - also told me that for the safety of my family I can't rely on Pune police. And fire engines of PCMC. A project - a gated community - should have all these facilities.

So, Saturday I visited a property exhibition. Shortlisted a few projects. And today, Sunday, we are visiting these projects. I visited Equilife, Skybay & Royal Serene at Mahalunge. Going to visit Austin Park at Tathawade. We are considering a few projects in Ravet too.

We are not interested in Kiwale. Because it's away. I have never gone beyond Mukai Chowk.

Chikhali - Moshi is downmarket. Closely associated with the blue collar workers from industrial belt of Bhosari & Chakan.

So, I am considering location close to Hinjewadi - Baner - Balewadi. Upmarket locations.

Even if the project is far away from my office at Pune station I don't mind. After all - who knows? - in future - I may get a job in Hinjewadi. Important thing is the project should have a proper security & reserved carpark. For my family. For my car.

"Are you going to sell your flat in Chinchwad Gaonthan where you feel insecure to live?," I asked.

No. I am trying my best to keep it. As a second property. Investment property. For my daughter. Investment in her future. Investment for our life after retirement. Said Girish & his wife.

I thanked Girish for sharing his horrible experience on a video & wished him all the best for a safe & secure place for his wife, daughter & car.

What say you?

If you have a daughter, please, tell me - how are you protecting her in Pune - where crimes against women are high & rising.?

Who will protect your family & property - Pune Police or the watchman of your society?

A Visit to Jhala Mhalunge Riviera

It's not all about Mahalunge Hinjewadi MIDC bridge:

Jhala Mhalunge Riviera from Mahalunge Hinjewadi MIDC Bridge

That day I couldn't stop myself from visiting Jhala Mhalunge Riviera.

Otherwise, for years, though it is so close, I had avoided visiting Riviera whenever I was at KUL Ecoloch.

But after visiting under construction Mahalunge Hinjewadi MIDC bridge on Mula river, and shooting photos of Blue Ridge Hinjewadi, KUL Ecoloch & Riviera from the broken bridge of KUL Ecoloch - I found Jhala Mhalunge Riviera irresistible!

No. Not really.

I wanted to avoid going back to KUL Ecoloch. So the only option was to visit Riviera. I assumed - visiting Riviera would be a less disgusting experience.

And you know what? Visiting Riviera was one of the most innocent experiences in my life.

Yes, innocent experience. Not a pleasant experience.

I hate innocence. I hate innocence in the young intelligent educated flat buyers.

Innocent flat buyers are mostly naive - stupid.

These 'innocent' flat buyers become victims of the unscrupulous builders in Pune.

At Riviera, I was treated as an innocent. Means, I was treated as stupid.

The salesperson at Riviera - showed me the location of the bridge on the map of proposed Baner Balewadi (from Mercedes Showroom) to Hinjewadi Phase 1 Road!
This bridge on Mula River is very close to our site. The salesman said.
It means that - Jhala Mhalunge Riviera is an ideal investment & residential destination.
If you are working in Hinjewadi - you will enjoy a good quality of life at Riviera.
If you are an investor - you will earn good appreciation.
All because of the strategic location of Riviera.
Close to Mahalunge Hinjewadi MIDC Bridge!

In 2011, the same sales talk - bridge to Hinjewadi - was given to 'innocent' flat buyers of KUL Ecoloch.

In 2011, the same sales talk - bridge to Eon IT Park Kharadi - was given to 'innocent' flat buyers of Phadnis Eastern Ranges.

In 2017, the same sales talk - the bridge to Eon IT Park Kharadi - is given to 'innocent' flat buyers of Puravankara & Godrej Infinity in Keshav Nagar.

In 2017, the same sales talk - the bridge to Hinjewadi - was given to Ravi Karandeekar at Jhala Mhalunge Riviera.

For a moment, at Riviera, I realized that I am facing what I wanted to avoid.

I had avoided going to KUL Ecoloch. Because, I can't bear the way the residents of KUL Ecoloch are surviving.
They are in pain only because they were too innocent - almost naive - when they booked their flats.
If they had behaved like adults - for sure - they would not have had to see these days. I believe.

At Riviera - I was considered & treated as an innocent. Not as an adult. Exactly the way - the residents of KUL Ecoloch were treated when they booked their flats.

I have avoided KUL Ecoloch. But I have become one of them.
Means, I am going to suffer like them.
No. I do not want to suffer. Suffering is unpleasant & painful.
Buying a home in Mahalunge & Sus is not all about the bridge to Hinjewadi.

Then what is it all about? You may ask.
Visit KUL Ecoloch to find out before booking a flat in Mahalunge & Sus. I will tell you.

What say you?

Are we slaves of the our IT company?

Do we buy a home only because - after our shift is over - our company does not let us sleep under the desk - and forces us to leave the office premises?

Is distance from the office the only parameter to choose a home?

What these projects in Mahalunge & Sus have to call them 'urban homes'?

These flats have a toilet or two - Sandas - Shauchalay in every flat.

But no water supply to wash your butt. No drainage lines - no sewage treatment plants - to process your shit.

Of course, if you love to play in your own piss & poop then you will love to live in Mahalunge & Sus. Right?
