Indian cities are a palimpsest of demography, architecture and governance, now growing exponentially to meet global standards. Bangalore is one such mega city in the south of India hosting a population over 8 million people. Basavanagudi, an affluent neighbourhood in South Bangalore paints a picture from a bygone era different from the cosmopolitan image the city portrays.
