Bikers in Gurgaon Conquer Mandawa

By -

After Amritsar on the 15th August 2013, the fraternity group Bikers in Gurgaon (B.I.G.) Riders added Mandawa as yet another destination accomplished, interestingly on 15 September 2013 – just a month after accomplishing Wagah Border, Amritsar. Five BIGGIES, the name the Bikers in Gurgaon go by … Saumitra Chaturvedi, Mahadevan Chidambaram, Rahul Bhatt, Mayank Rao & Sumit Malhotra rode more than 550 kms over two days and visited the desert town of Mandawa also called the Land of Havelis in the Shekhawati region of Rajasthan unfazed by the blistering heat, treacherous highways and sands of the desert.


The BIGGIES rode on the NH-8 till Behror and then moved on to the state highway towards Narnaul and then onward to Singhana, Chirawa, Jhunjhunu to finally rest for the night at the Paawana Haveli in Mandawa.


The town of Mandawa is resplendent with aging and lavish fresco paintings on the walls which makes it look like an “open art gallery“. Heritage and culture is abound in narrow lanes and town square of this quaint town. The fresco paintings on the Havelis & Temples are visible from the road itself – pity the BIGGIES were not able to bring any of the frescoes back, but they claim that the memories of the trip will remain etched in all their hearts for a long time. A fantastic, take it slow ride that left everyone happy but still asking for more returned the next day via towns of Buhana & Patcheri Kalan in Singhana.


Bikers in Gurgaon (B.I.G.) are biking enthusiasts based in Gurgaon (Delhi NCR) who have got together for common purpose to nurture Passion, Brotherhood, Unity. They welcome all bikers with a BIG heart and are engine/ manufacturer neutral. If you have a biker in you and would like to join the group on their future explorations, connect with them @ https://www.facebook.com/groups/bikersingurgaon


Enjoy some of photos of this trip till the BIGGIES bring back more from their next trip. Knowing them riding again may not be too far out.

The stage was about to be set for Hrithik Roshan and Saif Ali Khan’s ‘Vikram Vedha’ in Mumbai’s Film City. The material had reached. The artisans had been hired. But the lights have now been dimmed. Madhavan and Vijay Sethupathi’s hit movie Vikram Vedha’s Hindi remake will not go on floors by mid-July as per the original plan. The new delta virus of COVID has sent shudders down many spines and many films which were being laid out on an expansive scale have been either held back or shifted their shoots abroad. The first schedule of this Hrithik-Saif movie will now be shot abroad. A source says, “The Mumbai schedule will be done but later.” Adds the source, “It’s a call that was taken yesterday. It wasn’t an easy call to take, no doubt, but the fact that it’s going to be a costly set made the makers take the safer route rather than be sorry later.” When contacted, General Secretary of FWICE (Federation of Western India Cine Employees), Ashok Dubey, confirmed that the makers of ‘V
