One of the colours of this city
Bangalore is a city teeming with humungous souls with dreams and aspirations. Hence the city has been a breeding ground for multi cultured individuals, that goes without saying. Incidentally, this city which had just over 10 lakh folks in the last decade has added a mammoth crowd of another 40 lakh in the last 10 years.
Boy this city has appitite for acceptance:)
This has made many living in the city craving for some place far from the crowd, yet inside the bondaries of the city. I have friends who during our weekend sojourns complained about Bangalore not having any place to go for a good break.
Only if they could look beyond the hyper populated MG Road, Brigade Road, Forum, Garuda et al and look for alternate options I say.
And one of the place to visit is definitely the limits of JP Nagar 1st phase police station:) Police station would not be a good place for a weekend retreat..the place just a stone throw away from it would definitely be..
For those who are smart enough to catch the clue..congratulations..
For the uninitiated..im referring the artistically beautiful Rangashankara where theatre blossoms and the bloom of it can be felt by all and sundry.
It would be not justified if I do talk about what the place is, what it gives and what you can expect of it...Rangashankara is to be felt and not written..if you do get what I mean to say..
Definitelty one of the colours to splurge in..
JP Nagar 1st phase (next to J.P Nagar Police Station. Plays generally happens towards the evening. )
From MG Road. Rs. 45 if you going by auto..new meter..:)

I wish to visit there when I come to India next time. I was there once about twenty years back!
i am in bangalore right now and i don't get bothered getting lost in the crowds.but that is when am alone.when am with my folks they get so bugged and annoyed.my dad keeps pulling my hand saying,"let's go back home"
and yes,the new auto meters...they pull out this yellow piece of paper and charge anywhere extra from 7 to 70rs!!!!!!
ha now the auto charges have increased again..buggers!!the other day the metre showed 56 and the nut took 106 from me!!!!!!
dreamslittle: im sure you would surely love to visist the place:)
maya cassis: yellow piece of paper..i guess they are not priting fake fares..beware maya..56 to 106..the sheen of honesty just seems to be fading away from this city..tch..tch.:(
yeah they maybe printing fake yellow sheets man!these buggers are too much.it's such a pain to enjoy the rides anyway...not having to mention the smoke,noise pollution and the thingamajigs that fall from the air...and to add to it now...Rajkumar!!
what a shame bangalore would have when it comtemplates the untoward voilence on the eve of rajkumar's funeral...one of thise disgusting feelings to see the essence of the city rot...too bad...
another thing about these bangalore auto walas...these people, many of them ,still have their old 10 rupees minimum meters, what they do is they increase the speed of rotating of the meters and then ask for fare acc. to 12 rupees meter...so if the fare should be 30 rs(acc. to new meter), the fare will be 31 rs(acc to old meter), n now u will be asked to pay some 6 7 odd rupees more!!!i know what to pay coz i have been travelling on these roads since more than 2 yrs, if u don, ure doomed!
wish I cud be in Bangy rite now.
hows u? :)
Keshi.
