N.S. Info City residential township on the Dodballapur-Bangalore International Airport Road is expected to hit the record books for its unique sensibilities in man-made creations, says RANJANI GOVIND

LIVING IN A DIFFERENT WORLD: N.S. Info City is a sprawling residential-cum-entertainment township built with fairy tale characters.
Can you think of a residential township in Bangalore where 1,500 sites sit pretty amidst some gargantuan remakes of Gulliver, the Denmark Mermaid, Alien Park, Aladdin and his magic lamp, Pied Piper of Hamelin…all these nestled amidst musical fountains and thematic parks, swimming pools, temples, rail tracks with running trains, and a unique space created with the Masai tribe of South Africa?
Sounds unbelievable? Consider this: The 100+acre N.S. Info City township — the brain-child of K.V. Narayan of K.V. Narayan Group of Companies, Bangalore — boasts of having all these amenities amidst the cool swaying of around 5,000 trees. If the water bodies, lawn and skating arena speak of the upper crust glamour, the worshipping areas and the Bheema and Bakasura Betta have legendary tales woven around them.
N.S. Info City, located on the Dodballapur-Bangalore International Airport Road, opens from four large gates on different sides and the main arch at the entrance is designed on the lines of Arc de Triomphe in Paris.
Five-acre park
The five-acre park is designed to resemble portions of the Vatican Palace and the backdrop provides a stage for cultural and social activities with a water body that lends sophistication. Even the seating arrangements that crop up now and again in the 100 acres aren’t just the staid seats of any normal park. Some are in the form of folded palm, some shaped as water melons and some more amidst swans that interlock dreamy romantics.
Why such opulence, lavishness and design duplicates? Says the effervescent Narayan, “I used to love fairy tales and children’s books from a very young age. But that didn’t stop as a kid. My craze to associate myself with the characters became a burning passion. Since I am a builder by profession, my frequent travels abroad took me to such destinations where I resolved to bring in all creations to India for people to enjoy seeing the world right here at Bangalore. It may be an obsession, but at the end of the day I have some world-class cement, stone and green reproductions from amusement and entertainment themes from across the world. The township is an amazing confluence of varied interests and leisure spots and hopefully it will be in the Guinness Records too, as it is a one-of-its-kind creation.”
If that covers the design aspects with a magnetism, hardcore construction details such as water pipes and sewage lines are also in Class I technical standard with asphalted wide roads adding to the natty make-up, says Narayan. Rainwater harvesting is also taken care of with the man-made lake constructed at the lowest point capable of holding enough water for six months for residents.
“Since all the clearances are ready, people can even think of construction in the sites,” says Narayan confidently, as his gigantic dream costing more than Rs. 30 crore, as of now, will be reality in the next one year.
