Ms Krishna Das

Junior Architect

Krishna Das, Junior Architect, has been part of Mani Group since 1987. Several dreams have become a reality since then and Krishna Das has participated in making these dreams come true. “Before Queen’s Park office we were housed in Mani Mansion, our first work space,” she remembers. “I have a diploma in architecture and the first project that I was involved with was Mani Towers at James Long Sarani. We were a very small team but completely dedicated to our work which was both challenging and exciting. Today, all these years later, the organisation has grown by leaps and bounds and is very professionally managed. Now our real estate projects are lavish and have spread out of Kolkata.”

Krishna Das looks after all architectural drawings and has been involved with the JW Marriott project as well as the Courtyard project in Siliguri. She points out, “Though the work atmosphere in my department is friendly, it is also very organised. I sometimes find it difficult to believe how far we have come from the original homely atmosphere that we used to have at our office! I am proud to work with extremely talented and good colleagues who are always very helpful.”

“To have a boss like Sanjay-ji is a blessing. He is incomparable. He has a tremendous grasp over every aspect of the business and I have had the privilege to work directly under him so I know how greatly concerned he is about his staff. When I began work all those years ago, we used to do our drawings manually. Now everything is computerised. I took a break in my work because  I have a small son and I was not in very good health. But I am thrilled to be back at  my desk!”
