It's the baddest, meanest, toughest motor vehicle rally in Asia, if not the
world. A true test of man and machine, in the Raid de Himalaya,
participants put their life and limb in jeopardy, turning into extreme
adventure buffs. Spreading like a virus with each passing year, the 'Raid' is
attracting new addicts to the adrenalin rush - from housewives, doctors,
property-dealers, techies to even NGO types! In a journey like no other,
in 6 days participants cover 2000 kilometers of unbelievably beautiful, yet
harsh and difficult dirt, slush, mud and icy terrain, across dizzying heights
of 11 passes including the world's second highest motorable pass. Here,
the rarefied atmosphere makes breathing difficult and temperatures
drop10 degrees Celsius below zero even in autumn! One little mistake
or an error of judgment either by the driver or the navigator could
mean the end - of the rally and possibly life! Little wonder that only 25%
of participants make it to the finishing line of the only Indian motor
sport event that is listed in the off road rallies calendar of Federation
Internationale Motorcyclisme, Geneva.

Getting it
Ashwani and Abel might have had their own dreams, but they would
have stayed in dreamland if it hadn't been for the other two people on
the team -- Vikram and Monga.
Both talented filmmakers who love travel, they were responsible for
bringing Ashwani and Abel together. Bikes, cars, wheels, speed -- a shared
passion makes for a great introduction.
After a few late night chats over chai in Vikram's studio, he suggested
that the duo put their skills together and give their one big dream a
shot. He even offered to start off their rally piggybank with a
contribution from his own wallet.
Then came the hunt for the perfect car that wouldn't break the bank.
They found it in an unusual place: the Wheeled Beast started life as a
sedate Parliament Gypsy! It's undergoing modifications in Ashwani's
Gurgaon workshop to make it ready for serious rallying.

Getting it
But as the preparations got hotter, Vikram and Monga wanted to get into
the fun. They've decided to document the dream -- with a snazzy film
that tells the tale of how a mechanic-turned biking camp and a creative
director with no rally experience are taking on the biggest names in
rallying in the arena of the Himalayas.
The film will have it all -- from the early introductions and brainstorming
sessions, the modifications and trial runs to the hunt for a medical
certificate and the ...It's a riveting storyline: David vs all those Goliaths.
With plenty of humour to spice it up, enough rallying details to satisfy
the most avid car freak, and team bonding and a growing friendship atthe base of it all.
