Sobhita Dhulipala On Inward Journeys & Living Victoriously

This issue of Travel + Leisure India & South Asia celebrates the spirit of slow travel. And one of the most popular trends in that realm—in the wake of the pandemic—has been staycations. Gone are the days of busy itineraries and place-hopping. Today, travellers are happy to take their trips one immersive experience at a time.

When we were looking for our cover star, we wanted to collaborate with someone who understands what it means to take it slow, to stay in, and bask in the glory of a destination—or as Grey Goose puts it, live victoriously. Actor Sobhita Dhulipala fit the bill perfectly.

She had a sheltered life growing up in Visakhapatnam but moved to Mumbai when she was just 16 to pursue higher studies and a career. Dhulipala’s life has been in transit ever since. Recalling her introduction to the Maximum City, she says, “My first day in Mumbai was overwhelming. I was a bit lost. At that point, I didn’t speak Hindi. I remember disembarking at Dadar station and being shocked to see a wave of people. I kept thinking, ‘It’s been an hour and I haven’t reached my place yet. How big is this city!’ All of it felt astounding, yet a sense of inspiration engulfed me.” For Dhulipala, Mumbai is not just a city but a love affair—best enjoyed briefly, at intervals, but intensely.
