Nimrat's must-read trekking pointers... Urmila's gyaan... Vikrant's looking dandy...
Sobhita Dhulipala exudes timeless grace in her latest photoshoot.
Nimrat Kaur treks in the Sahyadri mountains and gives us some pointers: 'Monsoons main ghats pe trek nahin kiya toh kya kiyaaa??!!!
'I'm no expert, I trek because it's a long time love-affair but reading about some recent trekking tragedies made me want to share some mini pointers.
'Please ensure you ALWAYS sit down for pictures if you're in flowing water or high up somewhere too close to a cliff.
'Super basic but most important to ONLY take your next step once the previous one is steady.
'Selfies and videos ONLY when you're standing/walking on dry rocks/even forest floor. Even with the best of trekking shoes and gear, there's lots of lose mud and super slippery rocks so PLEASE don't be in a rush.
'Try to wear BRIGHT colours, or carry some colourful element, makes it easier for rescuers if you don't camouflage with the forest incase God forbid there's a fall and you're injured. Going deep into nature comes with equal amounts of thrill and responsibility...
'Baaki ab ghats par garmi bauhaut badh rahee hai, kaafee photos main smiling outside dying inside waala scene tha... So jaldi plan banaao, Sahyadri ki khulee hawaa khao!'
Urmila Matondkar's thought for the day: 'Gorgeous..honestly is nothing but state of mind..how you feel and more importantly how you make others around you feel.'
