Pop culture makes you believe that a roadtrip is everything you’ve ever dreamed of doing with a bunch of your friends. It’s liberating, it’s cool and it’s smooth AF. But no-one really says how it turns out to be in India with your ‘Items’, your ‘Bantais’ and your ‘chaddi buddies’. This is what the Indianest Indian roadtrip would be like.
One month to roadtrip: ‘Dad, I need the car for a roadtrip’.
One day to road trip: ‘Daddy, please ek din ke liye, mom’s swear I won’t scratch the car, if I do you don’t give me next 6 month’s pocket money’.
‘Aye, toll ke liye chutte hain kya?’ *Continues to dig change given by every rickshaw driver in the history of his life*
