Pali Hill’s lanes, Carter Road and Bandstand along the water: a neighbourhood of narrow turns and tight gates, where a sarathi who has walked them yesterday is worth more than a larger car.
Pali Hill’s lanes are narrow and its gates tight; the house sends the car that turns in them, and the sarathi walks the last few metres if a lane will not take it.
Most towers here ask for a guest’s name at the gate and keep cars out of the porch until it is given. The sarathi gives yours, waits where security allows, and is at the lobby door, not at the kerb, when you come down.
Terminal 2 is close by road; the house still plans the hour, because Western Express Highway traffic is not a constant.
The Sea Link begins at Bandra; Worli, Lower Parel and the south of the city are across the water.
The house never names who it collects, or from which building, here or anywhere else. Your gate, your tower and your floor are written once, kept in your room, and read only by your sarathi.
Inside every written figure: the car, your sarathi, fuel, every toll, parking at both ends and GST. Nothing is added on the day, and no meter runs.
