We had been dreaming of a dil chahta hai style road trip for a long time and we finally managed one. - not the exact replication but only a little different. First, we didnt start from Bombay, but Chennai. Second, we didnt drive a merc but a zippy zen. And we were four. And then; Chan and The don couldnt get themselves duped by any girl inspite of all their sincere efforts.
It was our first long trip on the road -2636 kms- and we planned as naively as we all collectively could; we carried one rugsack each (2 overgrown and 2 undergrown adults with 4 rugsacks cramped in a lilliputian car), we lost our way on countless occasions and never had a contingency plan for any aberation. But our naivity was all the fun - we constructed five word sentences using five different languages, drove where the roads took us, and thrilled ourselves as the unexpected took our breaths away time and again.
