Now the reason 3 Idiots is extra special to my heart is cause the film is mostly shot in places I have visited or lived in. When my hubby and I drove down from Palampur to Manali along the Beas river on an early December morning, little did we know that this was the route Rancho's friends take during their mission to look for him. For those who have seen the film, this is the part where the song 'Behti hawa sa tha woh' plays in the film. The drive is actually really amazing. It actually made me feel that India has amazing places for sight seeing. In Manali we stayed in Solang Valley Resort. We Could see the glacier from our room window. We did a 7 km trek from the resort to a Shiv Temple. It was loads of fun. And I saw snow!!
After three days in Manali, we drove down to Shimla. Coming back to 3 Idiots, the place where Pia (Kareena) is getting married is a hotel called Woodville Palace in Shimla. My hubby and I stayed there when we were in Shimla. Beautiful place. I hope I can visit it again some day. We pretty much walked around in Shimla. Saw the Mall road. Its filled with places to shop and all kinds of eateries. To sum it up, one should definitely visit these places. And preferably drive down on your own. Its loads of fun if you don't get road sick while driving through hilly areas. And carry good music in your car!!
3 Idiots was really a great movie. Tour is the best phenomena that make your body warmer then the normal days. This time you can learn more then a normal day. You can visit lots of destination places where you go and all the tourist places has a good and pleasant environment that also effects on your body.
ReplyDeleteTraveling to Manali from Palampur refreshes the scene where the friends were driving in search for Rancho in the movie 3 Idiots. The route is indeed exceptional and rejuvenating. It has several mesmerizing places to explore.
ReplyDeleteWhen traveling to Shimla, one can stay in Woodville Palace that gained popularity after Pia's wedding scene from the movie 3 Idiots. The best way to explore Shimla is on foot. One can explore the local markets and visit Mall Road. It has some of the best eating joins and crafts shops. https://www.tripadvisor.in/Profile/kullumanalitour
