Amit Sadh is known for hit web shows like Breathe and Avrodh and movies like Shakuntala Devi and Yaara. He also won the Filmfare OTT Award for Best Supporting Actor for Breathe. For us, Sadh is someone who has an undying love for travel. We caught up with the actor to know more about his upcoming projects, his love for travel and riding, and why he calls himself a child of the mountains. Here are excerpts from the interview.Tell us about your show Jeet Ki Zid. You shot for it in Himachal in 2021.It's a story of a soldier who goes through a tragic event in his life, resulting in him having to rehabilitate himself, through the help of people around him, to get back on his feet and find a purpose in life. It was a great experience. These are the kinds of roles I love because my research allowed me to meet some incredible people. I met with people who have lost limbs, but they have come out stronger; their vision and will towards life have become stronger.We did a bit of trekking while in Himachal, but I was mostly there for work and was trying to stay in character or work on character even on my off days. But, it is always lovely to visit that place.Tell us about your love for riding.It's something I do to relax, unwind and take my mind off things. It helps me get out of character after a movie or series. When you play certain characters, you become them for weeks, and sometimes it's hard getting out of that mental state. Biking allows me to become myself again and connect with great souls and passionate riders worldwide. As for the locations I like to ride in, Patiala, Manali, Leh, and Himachal all have great roads and scenery.... and down south, around the Nilgiris. I rode a Ducati between Patiala and Manali. It was exhilarating. The roads were beautiful, the scenery was breathtaking, and the people I met in some remote places were the most hospitable I've ever met.You called yourself a child of the mountains in one of your Instagram posts. How special are mountains to you?I grew up around them and for me, they are one of the wonders of the world. You have to visit them just to understand how incredible and vast they are.You have become a fitness icon now. How do you mix travel and workout?Fitness is a lifestyle choice for me. It's just a daily task that I do, like eating lunch. I always find a way to get some sort of fitness activity, be it sit-ups, push-ups, or running. I can't sleep without having done a bit of it. I also feel it is an overrated conversation. You just need to keep moving and discipline your mind and body. And a lot can be achieved through that... there is nothing complicated here.Where do you head to for adventure activities in India?Usually the mountains. That's my go-to place. Leh, the Ladhak region... the east (Sikkim, Shillong, Gangtok, Tawang, Mirik) is on my mind these days.What do you love the most about travelling? What are the lessons that travelling has taught you?Experiencing different cultures and ways of life. I like to learn about the country and its way of living and I take all the good bits and incorporate them into my life. I also love meeting people from all walks of life and talking to them.What's your favourite travel destination in India and around the globe?Dubai has grown on me. I have many amazing memories in New York and London, but I love any place where you can just go on off-road adventures. And in India, just pick your bags and see the magic and the beauty. Despite your complexities and problems, no other place is better than our motherland. The vast richness of culture, people, and changing regions makes India my favourite travel destination. It will take a few lifetimes to discover it.Could you recommend some good road trips in India for our readers? Manali, Leh, and Himachal are my faves. Also the road from Mumbai to Goa. Go to the east, and try the Nilgiris... Just get out and see the beautiful sunrises and the sunsets. This beautiful country has a lot to offer.
