MUMBAI: Discovery is all set to premiere a new show which will see two road-trippers taking a journey around India. Titled #IndiaMyWay, it goes in search of young Indians, their passion and their continual quest for the unusual, exotic and adventurous side of life. The 13-part series introduces viewers to a range of characters ranging from celebrities, tribal fashionistas, women wrestlers, young scientists, tattoo artists, path breaking entrepreneurs, etc.
Paloma Monappa, an actor and avid traveler, and Meraj Shah, a travel writer, will share their passion for adventure and exploration of a new India.
The show starts on 16 October every Sunday at 8 pm. Travelling across all the 29 states, the series brings inspirational stories, a testament to young India’s grit and a fresh way of looking at the world.
Monappa said, “#Indiamyway has been a thrilling journey that traces juxtaposition of the new with the old. The series encapsulates incredibly liberating and empowering works of young Indians which paints an inspiring picture of the emerging India.”
The duo will cruise around in a Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza, covering over 28,000 kilometers, travelling through the roads of Delhi, trotting lush vineyards of Nashik, taking a safari in the Rann, cruising treacherous terrains of Ladakh, the duo is driven by the irresistible lure of far flung roads on an ultimate expedition.
“I have been travelling for years, however, this road trip was unique and refreshing. #Indiamyway has been one of the most enriching experiences, offering a stimulating view about the contemporary wave in our socio-cultural structure,” added Shah.
The road-trippers talk to everyone from photographers to chefs, comedians, sound-designers and artists to hear the challenges they faced and the conviction that carried them in their quest for meaningful work.
“Maruti Suzuki is thrilled to partner with Discovery on this journey across 29 states to discover the new-age India from the perspective of the millennials.
