Excerpts from an interview with Rupani:
What made you set out on a journey documenting the country’s 100 best destinations?
I love to travel and explore. India has so much to offer and though many of its destinations are well-known, there are several lesser-known destinations as well. So, I thought about coming out with a book that includes both; and I ended up compiling India’s 100 Best Destinations.
