AB-10, the office where Outlook began its journey, is filled with memories of another era

Those Film Roll Days

THIRTY years in AB-10, and now Outlook is leaving Safdarjung Enclave, a place from where I started working in the magazine. It was August 16, 1995, when we moved in from the Lodhi Hotel into this building. Our photo department was on the second floor. Upon reaching office, the photo team was promptly told by our editor, Prashant Panjiar, which section had been allotted to us. I also got to see other departments on various floors of the AB-10 office. The marketing team operated from the ground floor, the senior editors, designers and Vinod occupied the first, while the correspondents and desk worked from the second.
