The biggest thing is that you don't get a house here. No matter how much money we take, we don't get a house here. BVIPs are built because of this. BVIPs that's why it's not a sale purchase.
The big people, the millenials, the billionaires, they must be charging a high price to get a house.
Yes, yes. Today's rates are... I think people are demanding houses worth 100-100 crores.
So, if someone wants to buy a house in this sector with 4 acres, how much...
I think it's now within the range of 100-100 crores. But it's not sold here, it is very rare
So, a person has a deal of 200s Sometimes a person says that I have to buy it
It is not sold here
They say that the person who makes the house And the one who decorates it is the madam
So, have you decorated your house yourself or the madam?
No, no Look, this is all Missy Gill's She is also fond of it Okay She has for all this. The biggest problem of cleanliness is that of cleanliness. She says that we can make it.
Yes, we can make it. It is very difficult to maintain it. So, the whole interior, you must have heard, Atul Sharma, Atul Sharma was the music director.

Let's see the kitchen.
This is our kitchen.
This is the working kitchen.
This is also made with the same interior design as the dining room.
The working kitchen is outside. We are bringing in the spices from Punjabi people. So that the smell doesn't come inside. Oh, so that's why you don't apply it here? I apply it outside.

So you had to go through all the training.
Yes.
Because you didn't have no option to turn back,
to look back.
Now, there is an option. Now, the issue is why are the relationships breaking? Because, in those days, the Punjabi used to say, we are your daughter, we are your son,
we are your ancestors. We were your ancestors. We used to teach their daughters And now with the mobile phones, they ask why are the relations breaking Now they say that if there is a problem, we call whenever we can There is a slight difference
And then the boy, the daughters, they also make up a meaning That this is the problem and I have to adjust here

But sir, you were saying that after the arrival of the madam, the Pakhtonam was very much
Yes, I want to tell you that when a girl gets married and comes to a woman's house, the fate of the house is written again. There are people from poor families who have lived in shabby houses, they wear a lot of clothes, they used to get stung, we used to go to college We used to wear our bedding, our trunks, our sadukhs so that our belongings don't get wet So we came from there, but when they left, we started our business We didn't have any background I started my work after I did my BA in 1985 My father-in-law, law got his major retirement in 1985
and whatever he got in return, he gave me money that whatever I do, I do it for my life's income So after getting a job, he gets a provident fund Yes, he gets a provident fund How much money did he give you? He gave me 80,000 rupees
because he got 2.5 lakhs. He didn't have a salary. Yes. He used to say that when he got one rank,
his pension was around 50,000 rupees. But he said that when he got a job he used to get 300-500,000. I still remember that time when they gave me the money.
They said that this is my life's income. You can do whatever you want with it. This is my income. The remaining 10 acres was land. Our house area was at Pindaropar. The water supply was cut.
The crops were cut. So, you studied in village schools? We studied in village schools. We used to carry a sack in our hand and carry it with us. Now, the school system is better. They used to write on the bricks. They used to say that it will be wrong, then they will clean the bricks, ...
... then they will teach them, then they will do it. When the school was selected, we were very happy. Now the work of cleaning the bricks is over, ... ... then they used to clean it with a duster and write again. So, those schools studied in those schools.
So, you have had big dreams in those golden days?
Yes, in 2000 we came here on rent. I still remember that we used to have a room number 888 in 3B2. We came on the first floor on rent for 4500 rupees. I will tell you that on Sundays, we was reading in a newspaper that a property worth Rs.12 lakhs can be bought here, and a flat worth Rs.15 lakhs can be bought here. People are sitting here with their children.
We are living near the rent, so we can buy a flat worth Rs.10-12 lakhs. I had mentioned a house there, it was in the corner of Canal. There are a few houses there, in Satphesh and 3B2. I told them not to worry, we will buy this house, which is the house of canal and the corner of canal. They laughed at me, that don't get caught by Sheikh Chilli,
we will shift to 12 o'clock flat. But God has blessed us that in 2005, in the same lane, we bought the same the same canal, the same canal corner. We started in 2005 and we have been here since 2012. We have seen the struggle of the people of Gilshab. You see, we have fought for this land without any money.
It is a sport, the children have been brought up here, the platform has been built, platform to do whatever we want. But we have to get up from one place and add up the points one by one and make the company work.
We came to Sukhna Lake from Manpindo with our kids. In front of Sukhna Lake, there are all these big houses. The kids were small, so I told them, I wish we could have a house like this It would be a beautiful scene, a beautiful lake
We would have climbed up and come down
We would have climbed up and come down
We would have a house like this But within 10 years we got this house After Mohali Ma'am, your living hall is very open

When you have completed your studies, you would think of finding a job. You had a life before, so you ever think of finding a job?
I had a dream of finding a job in a bank. I would work from 9.30 to 5.30 and then go to the fields in the evening. That was my dream. I had also given a paper for a bank. When I saw the results in the newspaper, I was very upset.
I thought it was my name, but it wasn't. I had also submitted a paper for Patiala. God has to make a path for us to go through in life. Our village was a very illiterate person. He was an old man.
He used to carry a sack and a sheet. When I was in my lastate person I was an old man I used to carry a blanket in my hand When I was in my last year of B.A He used to tell me I don't want to give you a job I want to get you a half-time job

I was blessed to have a lot of good things in the last two years. Did you not get money from the people of the village? No, it was from the village. The people there had a very good relationship with the landlord. The situation has changed a bit now. It was like a family.
So it was very good. In 1987, I started a business. It started raining heavily. People's businesses were closed. I started again. The other businesses that were open,
they used to say that this is a new guy. Now his business will be shut. He has taken a wrong decision. I remember that I had gone to Barshe on 18th July. Barshe is not about the year 1982-1987. The rate was around Rs. 700.
I had made a profit of Rs. 20 lakhs. I was able to jump that. I had got another class in 1988. So, my life how I went on with my life. And this land, the builder land, it also became a miracle.
Okay.
You didn't build so many buildings on the walls and then thought of building your own.
No, no.
In 1995, we were a colonizer in Ropda.
Okay.
We were selling plot flutes. I was in the 8th grade. Okay. I was in the 8th set. I was in the 8th set and I was doing plot flute business. My office was so well built that when I earned 2 lakh rupees, it was a big deal for me because the money circle was very tight.
I saw their office and I couldn not able to ask for money from their office. They thought that they have enough money from the Pathe people, they are not asking for so much money from us. They took a 2 acre land and took 25% of my share. The line was good and we started working on it. In 2000, we started the Gill Land Company.
Was your first project in Mohali?

Okay.
When she became very useful, she said that, every child's mother is a bit more soft-spoken. I used to ask her, where are our parents? They used to carry the fish,
and used to carry the fish and and used to cut the boulders and plant them. Where did they come here? Now your stage is not there. They say, I couldn't teach you in good schools. This is my stage. Then this is the story from 2012, 2011.
I told her, Mother, let's do this. Let's complete your 6th standard. And we will build a school in your name. Now we will name it Mata Harcharan Kaur. My mother's name was Harcharan Kaur. Mata Harcharan Kaur Education Trust was registered.
Then we named it Gilko International School in 2013. And we inaugurated it with the help of our mother We promised her that if she couldn't teach 4 students then we will name it after you and give thousands of students a good education So today the school is at this level and we have to draw from our admissions
They say that the ones who study well, they are left with a job. But the businessmen, the ones who reach the top, they don't need to study so much. I have seen many businessmen who have not studied so much.
No, we have come from the bottom. We have studied in a desi school. I have many builders with me, JLPL. How many other builders? We are all simple people from simple families. I have many builders with me, JLP, LALA and many others. We are all simple families. So, it is okay.
The result I got is that some people study more, but the children do a lot of calculations. They calculate the profits and losses. Those who studied less like me, they said, if you want to do something, then do it. They wanted to get straight. And that's why they are a bit...
I mean, I studied economics. I had an economics subject in college. I studied from Rupert College. And there was a saying, more risk, more profit. I just kept that flag up and hid it.

don't value the time. Those who don't value the time, don't value the time. A great saint said, don't go to someone's happiness, but go to someone's sorrow. He also said, go to the one who has already passed away,
or to the one who has already passed away, but go to the one who has to go. So, these are great and beautiful things. I have learned a lot today. I feel very ashamed to hear about your time because I came late myself. So we have to fight for that.
We were very limited in time because of the company. And we are still. We have to fight for that. Sometimes we are disappointed because when we go for a time, usually politicians are an hour late. We go on time. When we go on time, we are late. They say that saints are late.

In those times, people didn't teach their daughters. They had to behead their wives.

Yes, because we had a very difficult time
So, where did you get Maruti?

Do you give any business ideas to Sir?
We sit together and discuss with the family
So, in Gilko, Madam has a big contribution
She has been in charge of the accounts for 15 years I say, it's a big role The main account is given to the company The accounts are banked But they have to be checked Sometimes, they make mistakes and the kids make mistakes.
So, it's a big role. So, you had a dialogue with the village head, and the madam gave you the entire book.
Did you also get a lot of inspiration from your father?
Yes, I did. I think it was in 1987 when we I left this world. I still fear that my hands may not reach me. I was so scared of my father that I still talk to him. I respect my children in that way.

Yes. This is our prayer room. Our mother was like a saint. She was very devoted. I used to study in school. There was a school building in Gurdwara Sahib. The children used to study there. Guru Maharaj's Prakash used to come there.
There was a Mahatma there. He was wearing a lot of clothes and a lot of jatas. We started living there. We had a room with the Gurudwara. I was 10 years old then. He spoke in Hindi, but he taught in Punjabi.
He stayed there for a year. I did his Sangat. I did his Sangat at that time. When people got married, they used to give them ladoos and jalebis. In the villages, we used to give them ladoos and jalebis. Because we were eating ladoos, we went to meet 2-3 kids and they brought us here.
At that age, we had a strong memory of the child is a little strong, the power of learning is strong at that age. And we were taught the five-line path in the youth. Then he taught us to do Sukh-Asana and Prakash. Then one day he gave me the key of Gurdwara Sahib. He said, child, until I die, you have to light this lamp and give it to Santokh. And until I die, you have to do this.
He left.
He didn't come back?
No, he didn't. I served Gurdwara Sahib for 25 years. We used to get up at 2 in the morning. My mother and I. Gurdwara Sahib was a little far from our home. It was a little far from our village.
We were kids and we were scared. So I took my mother there. I was going to Prakashkar and Gurdwara Sahib's floor was wet. My mother would sweep the floor. She would sweep the floor and clean it. Our routine was to wake up at 2 am and take a bath.
There were geysers there. It was January and June when the water broke. That routine is still there. I came here in 2005. My mother served for 10 years. My family served for 35 years.
So, we have been fighting. Now, every year, we bring been praying to Guru Granth Sahib and getting the light of Maharaj. I have been doing this for 12-15 days. I have been switching off my phone and all activities. I don't even knock on the door.
I knock on my room, Baba's room, Baba's room. So, it is the grace of our family. So, you have brought the Simran Nilayap? Yes, this is the foundation. We light the Mela here.
I see that you have Hindu religion here.
Yes, this is how we have politicians like Dwali, Tihar, Hindus and Muslims. We take the donations and keep it here. We keep it here. We should respect all religions. So we keep it here.
Very good. I was just going around.
We will see. We will talk later.
Please sit. This area where we are sitting, there was a swimming pool here.
Why did you give the pool? The pool was here when we were sitting Why did you give the pool?

Get started freeThe pool was not used No water was used So we thought the area is not good And it is difficult to maintain the building
You said that you would have put the kids in the slippers are saying that you would have built it in the roof of the house But you didn't want to build it in your pool
No, I have no interest in it now I don't have time, I am busy I thought I will build it in my home And then I will build the pool And then I will build it
So when you were building the house, did the lady or the child have a special demand for anything in the house?
They did the interior work, we just did our work. They did the machining, they did the theater, the kitchen, they did everything they needed. So which corner of the house is the most comfortable? kitchen When everyone gathers in the evening and we sit together for 30 minutes in a room, we don't talk about business. They go to Gilko International School, or go to Marketing. Sometimes, kids start talking about business. We say, let's talk about family for the half an hour we have. We do business all day.
So, it's a routine. We meet in the evening and chat for half an hour. You have built a house for so many people. What's the difference between building a for other people and for you? Madam can tell you this, because I don't have a role in this.
I built it myself, let the people build it.
So you didn't complain that you should contribute to this?
No, I didn't have any interest in building this house.
I told him to give me money and make it. Because we are very busy outside. And there is a lot of pressure from the political side. We were tired of making food. And he prepared it himself. Do you miss the village time? Yes, it is a simple life.
But it is a life of God. All that you are seeing is the crown of the Kandas. There is no peace here. But these are the people who have money. Many people think that the people who have money, they will be very happy. I say, sir, you are very sad about money. Why? See, if you have money, you will start a business, you will face the same problems. So, the life of the village is simple. No one sleeps peacefully.
No one is tired. Because they work and get tired. They get a good sleep. And the rich people don't get sleep after taking pills. Because money is a sure thing. Money doesn't give you peace in life.
It doesn't give you happiness. Ma'am, you will be a servant here, but you do all the work in the village.
Yes, I do all the work here.
Great.
Yes.
Did you manage to find a stable for the kitchen?
Yes, we did. The stable was small, but we had to do all the work for the kitchen. How many people were there in this house? I am a driver for trucks, I also cook food for my family. I have around 10-15 members.

Yes, I even cook for the cows.
Wow, nowadays women don't cook for the cows. They say that they don't cook for the cows, but they have a job for them.
But life was good.
That is why I have a routine. I help them as well. I clean the house when I have an interest in it. Even though the kids do it, I help them. Like, do this, clean this dirty pan.
The animals don't go back to their habits. We went to the Jakhna's mansion,
they say that our mother still works for 3 hours, 1.5 hours in the morning and 1.5 hours in the evening. Yes, she does. She is very passionate about her work.
She asks, is this a common breed? She is interested in everything. Do these animals belong to the same generation?
No, there is a big disappeared in the current generation. There is a lot of difference in the current generation. The old people were doing their work by hand. Now, the children want more facilities. They want to work together. But the people of our generation,
our generation, they have worked with us. That's why they have interest and we have worked with them. What was the moment of life when everything changed? We still remember that day. When I told you that we used to it was full of mud and rain. I had kept photos of my house in the village.
I have a photo of Guru Nanak Patshah Ji, there is water in it. It was very bad. When we were in the Satphesh, our house was in in Satphesh, Mohali We were living there in 2006-7 We brought our mother's photo frame from the village
Because our mother and father were living in the village They said they didn't like it So when they brought the photo, there was a fire They told me a big thing They said, son, money is a very bad thing. It increases ego.
They said, if you make a mistake, your mind will be filled with ego. I came and saw this photo. They used the Punjabi word that you will remember your status, where you are from.
You will remember your days, where you are from. You will remember your days, where you are from. That you will be connected to the earth. So, even today we shifted here from 2014. But even today we haven't sold the house. When it was empty, people left it there. That light is still shining from 2006.
We saw that photo. We didn't sell the house because our mother took it away. We don't know who kept it and it is still there. Do you remember the first flat that was sold or the first site constructed? Yes, we did the first roopda plotting. We did the plotting in Kharad.
The first concept of flats in Kharad was brought by Gilco. We built a Gilco tower and made a flat of 400 acres. So we brought that concept, people were saying that it was good because they don't listen to hear that my culture is different from others. I am also a little scared of that.
You want to build a flat.
Yes, I want to build a flat. It is a huge investment. But it is going so well. The concept is that land is so costly that they are building flats.

Get started freeBecause you live in the villages, the fun you get in the huts is not in the flats.
This was the initial thought from 2000 to 2007. Then slowly it started to happen that the biggest issue is security. So the security in flats. Now, we have seen in the brothels, how people go to their homes and commit murders. But there, security is very good.
That's why people prefer to stay in the flat with the brothel. So, you are saying that staying in a flat is a compulsion. Yes, I mean, consider it a facility or a compulsion. But there are people who live outside. Their children are outside.
They are old. They are selling their houses and shifting to flats. Because they are not providing the security of their houses. They are providing the facilities. There is a club there. There is a game center.
All the facilities are there. They don't have to go out All the projects that are coming up, they will get everything there So people prefer flats, cost also matters Because private flats are very expensive But in flats, cost is also different from the other houses and the facilities are also different
Sir, have you brought any records of how many houses you have given to people?
I have given thousands of houses, thousands of flats, plots I have thousands of families, Gilko family We are connected to each other
Sir, we have taken you on a side, do you still come here? Or have you retired from work?
I am retired, but I go whenever I feel like.
Are you feeling like going today or not?
No, not today.
Okay, then we will go today.
Okay, thank you.

You have a lot of red damajis at home, there's a lot of news on TV. Did they try to find you? No, no. The common man party got a little bit... I had joined BJP. I joined BJP on the first of August and they had raided on raided 2 August. They must have been upset because they were pressurized to come here. BJP joined and they had to go through the political system. So this time we will defeat Anmol Gagan. I don't know if I will meet him at Tech or somewhere else.
But people are upset. But people are happy that you are getting it.
People are very upset with me.

So if you get the responsibility of the land, will you make it for yourself?
Absolutely. These promises won't be left unfulfilled. No, no. I am a developer. Our life is our field. Now, the thing is, what is the position of Kharad?
I think he has around 500 crores in his bank account But people are craving for water, seawater, roads What is the situation of Kharad? If a boy finds out that a girl is from Kharad, he will break up with her People have made up me on social media Some guy went to drink coffee and he said that he would have left with the money

We do the gurbani there. How many staff are there in this office? After leaving the office, the sound system is installed here. The heat is on all night.
Okay.
How many staff are there in this office?
We are hiring people for this office. Because the total number of people in this office is 20-30.
What other offices do you have?
We have a very creative name for our office. We have a very creative name. It's not our sales office. It's called the Meraki Experience Center. All of our smart screens are called the conversation room. You don't need a paper or pencil. You can show everything on the screen. The screen can be tilted, for can be customer friendly and it can be employable. We have made it all with technology.
So is it technology friendly only in the office or in the project?
No, in the project. What is happening in the project? The project we are doing is basically called Meraki. The name of the office is also from Meraki. This project is based on Grecian architecture. Okay.
You will see in our office, we have not added much elements to it. It is simple and elegant.
So, here you have made something very dangerous. Yes.
What have you made? This is our immersion chamber. Okay. Basically, what the builders do is they make scale models. We have an immersion chamber where we basically build scale models so we thought
we should do something different because our project is designed by Morphogenesis a world renowned architect I will give an example The world's single largest building which is Surat Diamond Bourse
which was inaugurated by our Prime Minister in Gujarat It is a diamond building It was also done by Morpho It is the world's single largest building The rest are Trump Towers, Gurgaon, M3M Everything is done by have morphogenesis.
So, they are very high level architects. And the reason behind working with them was that Gilko was a luxury project. And our aim was that the first thing we do for Gilko should be top notch. It should be timeless. People will say that this is not the thing. It took us 4 years to prepare this project.

Our interior architect is Sara Shyam. Sara Shyam has done the interior of our Mukesh Bhani's house. So everything is different The major aim is to say luxury and make it luxury There is a big difference between the two
Is it your dream project?
Yes, this is my first own project I was thinking from the beginning that this is my own child. When a person raises his child, he doesn't let anything go to waste. He nourishes him properly. I was doing it with that thought. But people often complain that the builders don't bring good stuff.
No, this is Gilko's ideology. I remember. I was studying in school. And our Gilko Heights were being built at that time. And Gil had chosen a tile palette. I was in 6th grade. And I was told to go to work or go to work. I was studying at the hostel BCF Bishop Cotton School, Shimla.
And when I came here, I saw that the tiles of 11 floors were breaking. So I asked my father, why did you do this? He said, I chose a different design. He brought a different design. But I had committed that to the customer.
And I will bring the same design that I had committed. And I got a lesson from Mr. sir that he never saw his loss. He always thought that I will give the same thing that I committed to the customer or better than that. So I also work on that principle.
Great. What is this?
This is our cafe where we will introduce our live kitchen for our customers. Our customers will be presented with a menu. They will choose from the menu and we will cook a live for them. They will be ready in 15 days. This is not ready yet? Yes, it will take 15 days. We will have to come again?
Come to your office.
We will give you a flat book and send it to you.
We need a special discount.
Absolutely sir. This is our strategy suite. This is our strategy suite, basically a conference room. As I said, we have kept the names very creative. Strategy suite, it has a sanctum. These are not typical names.
The sales office, the cabins, their name is chamber of asset acquisition. These are the creative names.
So, I am sure you will get to see this creativity in flats too.

You put concrete in the house and after 10 days you can open the house. It will be ready. You don't have to bring bricks, you don't have to build a wall. We are building with that technology.
Wow. There is a jack system on top of this but it is not viable here. The technology you are talking about, the builders are not viable here. But, my one... The technology you're talking about, the builders are doing it here. But with this,
construction can be faster. If you, like our six towers, and triple four flats, 442 flats, if we do construction at full speed,
we can finish the entire structure in 15 minutes. Construction is this fast. So, I am very excited to see how it turns out. Absolutely. It was great to work with you.
