Over the past 60 years, India has changed more rapidly than any other nation on the planet. In fields as diverse as agriculture, medical research and information technology, India already leads the world. Sanjeev Bhaskar’s quest is to get under the skin of modern India, and his journey takes him from the deserts of Rajasthan to the lush tea plantations of Darjeeling, high into the Himalayas, along the course of the holy river Ganges and across the border to Pakistan on a mission to find the ancestral homeland that his family left behind. This upbeat adventure is set against the backdrop of a country without visual equal.
Part 4: A Camel Called Sanjeev
On the final leg of his journey, Sanjeev Bhaskar heads into the magical state of Rajasthan, where he samples the princely lifestyle of the Maharaja of Jodhpur and learns how Indian royalty has reinvented itself in a bid to become relevant in the 21st century. Deeper into the country, Sanjeev hooks up with nomadic camel herders and witnesses the birth of a baby camel. At the remarkable Barefoot College he sees how some of India’s poorest people are being empowered and the caste system challenged.
