Saumya Tandon
Saumya shares, “I don’t usually like to drive as I get irritated with the traffic and the harsh sun bothers me as well. But in the monsoon, driving is fun. Maharashtra is so green and beautiful, and there are so many places to visit in and around Mumbai. I take short trips to Lonavala, Karjat, Nashik and Mahabaleshwar. We stop on the way to nibble on fried snacks!”
Sudhanshu Pandey
Sudhanshu talks about the meditative aspect of rain, “The sound of pouring rain is so meditative. I love the energy the monsoon brings. I love to stand and admire the greenery in the surroundings along with a nice cup of coffee as it rains. I feel the vibes that you get from the trees and plants also changes along with the atmosphere. It is very serene.”
Karanvir Bohra
Karanvir talks about the first rainfall, “I love the monsoon and getting drenched in the rain. Pehli baarish mein bheegna hi hai, it’s a must! The one thing I always do during rains is gorge on butta. Swaad hi alag hota hai. My wife (actor) Teejay Sidhu and I also love visiting the hill stations like Matheran, Lonavala and Karjat. I have a farmhouse in Karjat and during monsoon, we often spend time there, enjoy the view and the weather.”
