'Betaab' Valley




Named after the Sunny Deol starrer Betaab which was shot here, this beautiful valley is still untouched. Almost as it was when the film was shot. Great place for trout fishing as well.

Below, me messing with my Travelogue Host, Sunaina as she tries to cross River Lidder over an old wobbly bridge.
Also, our driver in Kashmir 'Prince'. For some weird reason, he would always look away whenever I would take his picture. At the same time he was quite fond of him being clicked. Wouldn't lose a Photo-op. He became a character of interest for me because of his laziness to get up early in the morning for shoots yet he would brag to me all day about his hard work with other guests. I would have to give him a wake-up call. Poor guy was struggling to keep up to his image. He was very chatty and would find a friend almost anywhere in the state. Also has an interesting history. Some of which is not safe to discuss here.
