Being 'Bangalored' is the latest addition to the English lexicon - an American tribute to this Karnataka city's growing global technological prominence. Thanks to the number of American jobs that are now headed towards Bharatvarsh, specifically Bangalore, the high-tech city is the playground of many global companies. Bangalore's runaway success is evident in the growing cluster of chrome and steel office complexes, swanky malls and shopping arcades. Add to that a salubrious climate, extensive green cover and an easygoing lifestyle, and you have India's most progressive city.

Bangalore is a city in transition. Colonial-era buildings are mirrored in the chrome and glass highrises that are sprouting up all around. It is not only a great place to do business but also to shop. Or, just walk around the city's parks among the splendid pinks of cassias, the purple majesty of jacarandas and the flaming gulmohars.

Bangalore has a zest that is infectious with vitality and vibrancy. A pub culture has sprung up and young software professionals elbow for space in the numerous pubs and eating places in the evenings. The fifth largest city in India today sustains an enviable momentum of industrial and commercial growth. It is, simply, a city hard to resist.
