It's deep in the south of India and next to Goa, but thankfully the folk who like Goa haven't worked out that Kerala is a lot nicer and just next door. You do feel that you are discovering somewhere entirely new in Kerala. It makes you feel like you are on a totally different planet.
I have been constantly working on the interiors of my homes in Delhi, Goa, Dubai, Mumbai, and the Red Chillies Building. I had been designing homes, too. Having a background in art, graphic design, and charcoal helped me in my work immensely.
We have to change the politics of Goa.
I love travelling, especially to Goa.
Playing for FC Goa was a great experience for me.
Goa isn't just about tourism and happy faces.
I wrote large chunks of 'The Impostor' and 'The Good Doctor' on a beach in Goa.
I'm a total water-baby. I've seen some pristine beaches, from Greece to Goa.
I found a place under a bridge in Goa where you could have fresh crab and beer. It was nothing complicated, but delicious.
Going to Goa was a rite of passage for me, because it's where I learnt that you could mix fish with really strong flavours.
I have known I was destined to live in Goa the moment I first stepped foot on the Panjim docks from the ferry from Mumbai, when I was 18.

For me, summer holidays, vacations, New Year, and any trip away from Bengaluru meant going to Goa. My mother is from there.
Lost rights are never regained by appeals to the conscience of the usurpers, but by relentless struggle....goa ts are used for sacrificial offerings and not lions.
Whenever I feel like the hustle of Mumbai is suffocating me, I just hop on a plane and jet off to Goa for three to four nights.
India. From Goa to Kerala and Mumbai, it gets me every time. It's the food, the people, and the colours. The magical atmosphere and the accepting nature of the locals.
