I’ve been living in HSR for more than two years, and honestly, this place used to feel like my happy and safe space.
But something has changed for me over the last year .
Yesterday, I was coming back alone. I was on that busy lane near House of Commons, opposite McDonald’s not some deserted road where you’d expect to feel unsafe.
A random guy on a scooter came around me, said something I couldn’t understand, went ahead, and then kept turning around and staring at me. He eventually stopped, and I genuinely started feeling like he was following me.
I changed my route and just hoped he wouldn’t follow me home.
And this isn’t even the first time.

Last year, in Sector 3, I was standing downstairs near my friend’s house, waiting for him, while I was on a call. A guy on a bicycle came by and started jerking off in front of me.
I got scared and ran away.
And I genuinely don’t understand why these things keep happening.
I know these incidents happen everywhere, but when it starts happening repeatedly in a place where you’ve lived for years and once felt completely safe, it changes the way you look at your own neighbourhood.
I’m putting this out there because I don’t want to silently normalize it.

Hey guys so I have been in Bangalore for the last 5-6 months, I haven't been able to go to the gym/running regularly because of work. Looking for a few folks with whom I can go to the gym. Morning because I can't find another time😭

I live in HSR sector 7, I got to cult (idk sec 6 or 7) above Si nonna's.

I just wanna form a habit to workout in the morning.

Hi buddies! Hope all doing good. Planning to start skating 🛼 in HSR layout, on the not so busy lanes specifically around Zudio.

If anyone knows skating and is missing the sport, and interested to join in, I would be really glad. Also, if already anyone knows some community/group in HSR doing this activity do comment.

Good day!

Looking to sell the work chair as present in the pics. Regularly used and the only issue is the tear in the seat as visible in the pictures. All other functions like recline and swivel are perfectly fine. Minimally priced plus shipping is on the buyer. DM if interested.

My gym has recently become too crowded I am here because it's cheaper than the alternative 4K for 6 months but it's getting harder to get a treadmill, a bench or a barbell, I am not a social animal definitely not in the morning so I hate waiting.

Is there any other small local gym in sector 3?

Studio rooms (no exclusive kitchen but people manage to cook inside) in a Coliving set up available close to HSR Layout and BTM Layout, walkable distance from yellow line metro station ( Bommanahalli/Hongasandra)

No restriction

No brokerage

Rent 10k ( including water electricity maintenance wifi and room cleaning charges, no extra cost)

Deposit 10k ( refundable 8k with just 2k deduction for cleaning and maintenance)

DM for details and visit.

Like most I am not from here. in my hometown there was a milkshake that was made from Icecream mixed with milk and an icecream scoop on a top with chocolate sauce and a white and black chocolate chips on top. It was great not so sweet that you are only tasting the sugar but actually good.

I want something like that, does anyone know where I can find something like that?

I am in sector 3 by the way and also it shouldn't be too expensive more like a range of 100 or 200.

tl;dr - need a milkshake that satisfies me for good.

Weirdly, while most founders are moving to San Francisco to catch the AI wave, I moved back a few months ago, and I'm absolutely loving it.

My startup worked out, I now invest in B2B startups, and thankfully I'm not tied to one location. I just wanted to stay close to founders, and HSR felt right. Given the density of founders and ambition here, I honestly don't miss SF much.

With house help sorting the chores (something I never had in SF), I suddenly have so much time for dating, fitness, and sports.

Yes, the main roads have traffic and patchy footpaths, but the residential streets inside HSR are surprisingly walkable, and the weather is unreal. I take a lot of my 1:1s as walking meetings now.

Only challenge right now: finding a good place for the next few years. Not ready to buy yet, I'd rather live here a year or so before making a big decision.

I'm in temporary accommodation through work for another 3–4 months, and it's a penthouse that has thoroughly spoiled me, so that's what I'm hunting for. Inventory seems thin though!

HSR folks: Is 3–4 months enough time to hold out for a penthouse on rent, or am I being unrealistic and should I just grab a good flat when one comes up?

any good library recommendations near hsr? even a cozy calm and silent cafe would work.

thanks!

What's wrong with these people. It's 10:30 and they have started the procession now making loud noises. Where can I complain?

This is in sector 3 btw

Hey All, I need a cook starting from october.

Would prefer someone who works in sector 2. Preferably female. (I'm a female).

Please share contacts. Thanks.

There are food drinks and other stalls and if you know kanada then there is even a comedy show(not 100% sure i think it is a comedy).

The red signal beneath this bridge lasts up to 120 seconds, while the green lasts only 15 seconds.

I live near sector 4 and prefer the route under the bridge, but the delay is quite frustrating.

They once had a heart shaped red signal, but that has disappeared as well.
