Technology has made geographical boundaries defunct – we can now achieve anything from anywhere (almost) – and COVID-19 has just proved it in full force. Offices are shut, meetings have been cancelled, site work is at a standstill! But does that mean we stop? No – we improvise, adapt, innovate and we move on! Humans, the “social animals” that we are, we have been enclosed in our homes in isolation – much against our intrinsic nature and the nature of our work!

Many years ago, while I was doing Sunil Mittal’s residence, he asked me to step in and do their corporate office in Mehrauli – apparently the L1 had backfired, and they were in a mess! There was no question of another L1. We went in, audited the work, took much of it apart, and redid it to last, at a higher cost than their L4! A waste of time and money for Bharti Airtel Ltd. In my own office, it has taken us 2
