To travel in India more than abroad: Kunal Kapoor

New Delhi, June 10: Many people would like to visit the international destination, but during the vacation, actor Kunal Kapoor liked to see different parts of India, which is a "unique" country and attractive. Kunal, along with his friend of over two decades, Cyrus Sahukar, went on a trip from Dharamsala to Kaza as part of upcoming TV show "Great Escape with Kunal and Cyrus", which will be aired on Fox Life starting from June 23. "I learned that from this tour there is so much to see in our own country. When we plan on a holiday, the first nature should go to another country," Kunal told.

"But when you are doing such a trip and traveling from city to city one day, there is a cultural diversity in our country, which we can explore. "India really is a special country. In every city, the dialect changes, the food changes and the way people live also changes. I really liked to travel within the country a lot more than abroad. I saw parts of India which I haven't seen before," he added. Asked why he didn't go on the trip with his wife Naina Bachchan, Kunal said: "There are two things -- one you want to travel with somebody with whom you'll enjoy travelling. Secondly, you would like to travel with somebody with whom you are comfortable in front of the camera. 

"Some people close to you are comfortable in front of the camera. So, Cyrus was perfect for this trip." Kunal, best known for his roles in films like "Rang De Basanti", "Welcome to Sajjanpur" and "Luv Shuv Tey Chicken Khurana", is currently prepping for Akshay Kumar-starrer "Gold". Talking about his future projects, Kunal said: "In a week, we will start shooting for ‘Gold'. There are a couple of scripts that I am writing which will go into production later this year. Also, I am really looking forward to ‘Raagdesh', which is slated to release in the end of July."

Kunal has sought to play the title role in the upcoming superhero web series "Doga". "Its shooting will start next year. It's a product of Raj Comics. They are the ones who made the character. We have joined hands with them for the film," Kunal said. "'Doga' is much bigger than life, but what I play in 'Ragdesh' is not bigger than life."
