India with Sanjeev Bhaskar

Sanjeev Bhaskar, creator and writer of The Kumars at No.42 and Goodness Gracious Me, embarks on an epic and uniquely personal journey through the heart of India for his namesake BBC2 series “India with Sanjeev Bhaskar”, unveiling a country of contradictions and surprises, where ancient and modern collide.Now we follow Sanjeev’™s adventures through the country of his roots, where he is reunited with old relatives with traumatic stories of Partition – but also discovers a shiny new India of high-tech industry and glittering Bollywood kitsch. This is still a country of extremes. In Bombay, Sanjeev sees where India’™s billionaires party, then he travels on to India’™s spiritual heartland, Rishikesh, where hippies and monks mingle on the banks of the holy river. He even lands himself a walk-on part as a sleazy producer in an Indian soap opera.In Sanjeev we have the perfect witty and thoughtful travelling companion with a unique take on a remarkable country – chaotic, astonishing and jaw droppingly beautiful. This is India like you’™ve never seen it before.
