After doing several reality shows, Rannvijay Singha on the experience of hosting travel show, Safari India

Rannvijay Singha
If Rannvijay Singha had his way, he would keep travelling to different parts of the country, exploring the diverse landscape on offer — from mountains to beaches, from deserts to backwaters. In a way, Safari India is his dream come true. The show has taken him to seven national parks across the country as he discovers the rich wildlife of India, one jungle at a time. Over to Singha as he recounts the experience of a lifetime:
What convinced you to come on board this show?
I got a call from the makers, saying they want to do a show that encompasses seven wildlife safaris in India. But [the job] was not about sitting in a vehicle and spotting animals. It involved interacting with the locals, forest officers, tribals, villagers, naturalists, and people who have dedicated their life [to forests]. It was the journey [that drew me]. We shot Safari India over 28 days across seven different wildlife parks — Jim Corbett National Park in Uttarakhand, Kaziranga National Park in Assam, Pakke Tiger Reserve in Arunachal Pradesh, Ranthambore National Park in Rajasthan, Gir National Park in Gujarat, Netravali Wildlife Sanctuary in Goa and Dubare Elephant Camp in Karnataka.
