Madan Gopal Bali

5000 miles to India Madan Gopal Bali

Born in an accomplished, royal family of North India, Mr. Bali's genius landed him in England. After finishing his Engineering, and his very successful stints in sports and flying planes, the idea of going back to his homeland India by road, gripped him so much, that he ventured all alone with his sweetheart- Volkswagen Beetle....



No GPS, Untarred Roads and the inhospitable desert, all impediments against his steely resolve...



His greatest challenge was to cross Pakistan without a visa.....this proved to be the crucial climax......and put all his wits to greatest degree of test.....could he actually make it?



Once you start this journey, it is hard to let go of the gripping stories that also give a glimpse of his huge persona.
