International trips have become impossible nowadays due to the coronavirus pandemic. So, why not look inward and visit our country’s beautiful location that is made famous by Bollywood.
Spiti Valley
Spiti Valley is a heaven on earth. A few movies that were filmed at this gorgeous Valley are Highway, Paap, and Kesari. Tiny hamlets and serene monasteries are sprinkled across this desert mountain valley, and it is situated at the height of 13,000 feet.
Rohtang Pass
Films like Jab We Met, Dev D, and Highway have immortalized the snow-clad stretches of Rohtang Pass on the big screen. It is a perfect choice for those who are yearning to take their bike out to the hills.
Pangong Tso Lake
Do you Remember Kareena Kapoor riding a yellow scooter dressed in wedding attire in 3 Idiots or Shah Rukh Khan in Jab Tak Hai Jaan? Both films were shot at this pristine blue lake with the stunning backdrop of magnificent mountains in Ladakh. These two movies put this beautiful place on the map of travelers once again. Of course, we’re guessing by the time this pandemic is over and free-flow travel returns, China will also be done with its mischiefs in the area. When you plan a visit to this unforgettable destination, consider the locals and the ecosystem of this beautiful cold desert.
Shimla
Shimla and Mall Road have been a favorite among tourists for many decades now. But Bollywood made this familiar-looking hill station a favorite among travelers. This city situated on the Himalayan foothills makes appearances in films like Bang Bang, Jab We Met, and 3 Idiots.
Gulmarg
Bollywood’s love affair with Kashmir started a long time ago when Shammi Kapoor showed us a glimpse of the green meadows and snow-capped mountains. However, recently, other Bollywood films that showed the beauty of this paradise on earth were Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani, Highway, Haider, Bajrangi Bhaijaan, and Jab Tak Hai Jaan. Though YJHD presented Gulmarg as Manali, the Valley’s beauty lured tourists to witness its majestic and pristine mountains.
