Over a homemade meal, Vivek and Pallavi spoke about their upcoming The Bengal Files, love for travel, veg vs non-veg food preferences and more. Vivek Agnihotri even revealed what travel means for him. It’s nothing you’d expect!

Travel For Vivek Agnihotri Is All About Having No Fixes Destination Or Goal

Vivek Agnihotri and Pallavi Joshi laid out a delicious spread of Ragi Idlis with Sambar, Mutton Chops, Bhopali Mutton Curry, Quinoa with Sauteed Veggies and more for Kamiya Jani. As the trio relished their meal, Kamiya asked Vivek if he had travelled with an objective in mind ot it was his way to unwind.

To this, the filmmaker replied, “If you travel with an objective, it’s not travel. It’s tourism”. He added, “When travel happens, it happens without any objective. Just travel. It’s about going nowhere.” Prodding the couple further, Kamiya asked them about their favourite travel destination. Pat came the reply from Pallavi — “India”.

With conviction, the Tashkent Files actor says, “Main bahut ghoomi hoon aur main aapko bata rahi hoon sach mein, humare yahan ke jo log hai waise duniya main kahin nahin hai.” (I have travelled a lot, and I will honestly tell you that the kind of people you’d meet in India, you won’t find anywhere else in the world.)
