Bangalore in the State of Karnataka epitomizes the good things in life. Whether it is software giants or the deliciously cool weather, this city is now a brand name for sophistication, success and trend setting, in international playing fields.
Mumbai in the State of Maharastra is India’s Hollywood and New York rolled into one. From celluloid heroes to the hundreds of homeless, Mumbai captures the glitter, the grit and the grinding hungers of the nation.
The State of Kerala is, I believe, one of the most beautiful places on earth. Rippling brooks and cascading waterfalls will greet you at every turn during the monsoons. The coastline is among the best in the world. It’s not for nothing that the State has the title ‘God’s own country.’
