Photo Shoot from Aurangabad

The Superdrive team had spent a couple of days in the “Land of the Nizams – Hyderabad”. Now, the turn had come to visit Aurangzeb’s city – Aurangabad. In Aurangabad, the team visited excellent historic places. Below are some photos from the landmark photo shoot.

At Golconda Fort, Hyderabad

Our third and final landmark for a photo shoot session in Hyderabad was Golconda Fort, a National Heritage Monument, tucked in the outskirts of Hyderabad.

IMG_2947-800
This historic fort, which was built by many rulers and destroyed by Aurangzeb in the 16th century is an amazing place to explore.

IMG_2938-800
Unfortunately, the Superdrive Nanos did not get the opportunity to go inside the fort, but got enough opportunity to admire the perimeter of this vast fort and in return got admired by hordes of people.

Photo Shoot at Birla Mandir, Hyderabad

The Birlas have done a great job of building temples and religious places across India. Most of them are in extremely picturesque locations.

IMG_2858-800
In this case at Hyderabad, the Birla Temple is situated atop a hill and offers brilliant views of the city.

IMG_2884-800
The temple in itself is made out of White Marble and is a treat to the eye.

IMG_2934-800
This was our second landmark location in Hyderabad for a photo shoot.

Nano Superdrive at Charminar, Hyderabad

When you are at the Land of the Nizams, what better place to be at than Charminar, the pride of Hyderabad.

IMG_2829-800
A bustling part of the city revolves round Charminar. It is possibly one of the busiest parts of Hyderabad.

IMG_2684-800
And this is where the Superdrive Nanos stopped for their first landmark shoot.

IMG_2708-800
It was tough for us to make it a perfect photo shoot as this part of town sees heavy traffic, but we managed somehow.

IMG_2820-800
But, irrespective of the traffic, this place has got a lot of culture and history attached to it.

Most Scenic on the White Route…

In Vishakhapatnam, the Superdrive moved forward from the Submarine Museum on the marine drive towards Kailashgiri that stood on top of a hill facing the Marine Drive.

IMG_2494-800
As we took the turn off from the marine drive and started ascending, the views got extremely beautiful.

IMG_2489-800
Every turn on these steep turns provided us with un-paralleled views of the Vishakhapatnam beach line and splendid views of the city.

IMG_2481-800
But, the best views were reserved for the last mile. Once we reached the top, the views were truly heavenly.

IMG_2543-800
This was the most scenic spot so far on our 20 day road trip. Such was the intoxication by nature that we forgot that we had a photo shoot to prepare for.

IMG_2551-800
Soon, we got into our normal work and proceeded to set up the Nano Superdrive Photo Shoot and even found some time to go and pay a visit to the Shiva temple on top of the Kailashgiri hill.

Raja Rani Temple and the Superdrive Photo shoot, Bhubaneshwar

Our 3rd landmark at Bhubaneshwar was Raja Rani Temple. This temple built during the Kalinga rule has been beautifully maintained by the Archaeological Society of India.

Earlier this morning, the Superdrive team were at Bindu Sagar, our first landmark at Bhubaneshwar.

IMG_2236-800
This place is one of the most important religious places in Orissa and in India. Built by the Kalinga rulers, the exquisite and ornate Lingaraj temple is in the backdrop.

Here are some of the photos!

Nano Photo shoot at Kasturchand Park, Nagpur!!

The Superdrive Nanos began their drive through the city of oranges by visiting Kasturchand Park.

IMG_1316-800
Kasturchand park is a fairly large place and an important landmark in Nagpur.

IMG_1319-800
A lot of press photographers and media personnel were eagerly waiting to see Pinki, Chaandi and Laali in their best colours.

IMG_1323-800

And these beautiful ladies did not disappoint them and happily posed for their barrage of photographs. A couple of media personnel even took them out on a short test drive!

92.7 Big FM Radio team and the Nano Superdrive!

The 92.7 Big FM radio team from Bhopal were giving their listeners a great opportunity to come, see and sit in the Nano.

IMG_1138-800
So, while the photo shoot by the lake side was happening, we were joined by the 92.7 Big FM team and some selected winners.

IMG_1139-800
This entire team got a great opportunity to check out all the Superdrive Nanos and sit and drive in the confines of a selected few. Finally, the Big FM team presented them with some gift packets for winning their contest.

The Nano Superdrive is in the city of lakes today!

Bhopal is titled the city of lakes and very aptly indeed. It is  extremely green near the lake and the lake itself offers some respite from the hot winds that blow across this city.

IMG_1125-800
And in line with this theme, our third photo shoot spot for the day was by the lake and some pretty gardens.

IMG_1126-800
This is the landmark where we saw the Nanos get a lot of attention. People would park their vehicles nearby and come over to examine the Superdrive Nanos.

IMG_1127-800
A couple of interested people even got to test drive the car out here as the roads were relatively free.
