often remains etched in our memories forever.
Ganga - The Soul of India will give our viewers a never-before

banks of the sacred Ganges through the
eyes of Dia Mirza, who is an ardent traveller. We could not think of a better
concept and host to marry the ideas of travel and culture in the Indian
context.” says Amit Nair, Business Head of Living Foodz.
The show promises to be a visual treat as Dia
narrates the multi-faceted story of one of the most extraordinary and scenic
river in the world - the Ganges. She travels through the many towns along the
majestic river, from Gomukh in the Himalayas to the Gangasagar delta where it
meets the Bay of Bengal. It showcases her escapades as she explores the
culture, cuisine and crafts of more than half a billion people.
A nature enthusiast and staunch environmentalist,
Dia enjoyed every bit of the shoot, as it was filled with many cherished
experiences like crossing the raging youthful river, mountain climbing at
Uttarkashi, dancing with the Santhal tribals of Sonajhuri, leading a
cleanliness drive in Varanasi and practising new yoga techniques at the ashram
of Mahesh Yogi in Rishikesh, made famous by the Beatles. Her journey will
inspire travellers and adventure enthusiasts alike.
