The couple will be creating history in the World Book of Indian Records for their motivational power and preparation for traveling across the Nation by driving a Honda Car sponsored by Honda India.

To empower, meet and explore India and its culture, traditions, customs, cuisines, and spread the message of love and humanity, the couple is a real-life hero for such motivational skill.

While interacting with various media organizations, The Great Indian Travel couple said that we are traversing 15000+ km and covering all states of the country which started from 1st December 2021 till 11th March 2022.

During the trip and after reaching Jammu, We gets an overwhelming response and opportunity to visit the residence of Shafqat Sheikh, located in hilly terrain and snow bounded Bunjwah region of Kishtwar district and stayed there for more than 24 hours and get a lot of experiences from the family of Shafqat’s. The one thing that was so much excitement at his residence was to serve the food to guests as per tradition and customs. The heart breaks when Shafqat’s mother packed various things for us and we were seeing the real feeling of someone who was caring about our journey, Laxmi said in an interview with a local news channel.
