Download Subtitles for Ep 1 BTS Delhi to Patiala Road Trip

Hello Ji! I'm starting journey of Punjab with a cup of tea. This is BTS Episode 1. I'm having tea at a highway in Karnal. This is such a decorative presentation of tea. There is foam on top and garnished with kesar (saffron). Best thing is they served tea with rusk, which I enjoy eating. I am beside Haveli Restaurant and Vivan Hotel in Karnal. This is G.T. Road in front of you. Usually, I dip rusk in tea and have. I'm seeing soo much foam on tea first time. I really liked how they served tea. The tea is good. In ancient times, tea was served in Kulhad (earthen cups). But now having tea in Kulhad has become premium experience. I have never seen almonds and raisins in tea. Here is almond and raisins which was used for garnishing. Something different! The place and taste of tea both are good. We began this journey by having tea. From here I will go to Patiala and make first episode. It is 12:30PM now. I'll have lunch at Ambala or Rajpura then head to Patiala. We are going to Patiala for this planning. We will cover Patiala, Jalandhar, Hari Ke Pattan and Firozpur. Then we will go to Bhatinda. Did you like Udaipur series? Yes, Udaipur, the temples of South India all were great. I visited many ancient temples. You can also visit Gwalior. We have covered Gwalior in our videos. You might have missed, but people liked Gwalior, Jhansi series. Okay sir. I drive my car slow. If I take a halt, it becomes a long break. I spent 45 minutes where I stopped to have tea. We took quite sometime. We have two choices for lunch, Ambala or Rajpura. It is 2PM now. I'll reach Ambala by 3PM and Rajpura by 3:30PM. Let's see. Meanwhile, I hurt my hand on last Odisha waterfall visit. It was at Chaulabhaja Waterfall, Mayurbhanj district. I didn't pay attention earlier, but later doctor recommended this for the pain. This has been suggested to give my thumb rest. Though I don't do much of heavy work. But the X-Ray wasn't very clear. Looking forward to a great Punjab tour. My personal challenge I might face with Punjab journey is.. .. I can't afford to gain more than 1KG weight. I posted my current weight on YouTube community. I tend to gain 1KG after a tour. I think I might gain more than a KG on Punjab tour. But that is the challenge to not gain more than 1KG weight. I am very sensitive with my weight these days. That cargo train is running on dedicated freight corridor. There are 2 such corridors, one from Ludhiana to East. The other corridor is from Punjab to the West side. This cargo train doesn't stop anywhere. It doesn't stop at railway crossings and is run at priority. This is because this cargo train runs on its dedicated route. I am going to Rajpura now. I will reach Rajpura in 15-20 minutes. Rajpura is a gateway to Punjab. You can visit multiple big cities of Punjab from Rajpura. I'm going there for lunch to have a special type of Poori. This Poori is made by stuffing with black gram. They add black gram on the outside of the dough as well. Let me taste it and tell you more about this food item. If you show this thali to someone, he might be confused to call it poori. It looks more like matthi, in terms of texture. I have traveled so much, but I have never had this type of Poori. This is a completely different food item, evident from texture. What a taste! In just one bite, it tastes soo different. Matthi is not folded in this way usually. This folds easily. It has black gram on outside and with stuffing of it too. This has changed the taste of it too. Poori is tasty and crispy too. The stuffing is also flavoured. Chola tastes good too. Now I feel like I am Punjab. The food has the taste of Punjab. I can already predict how great upcoming days will be. I have never tasted wadi of this type before. It is different, with mild masala. It is a bit tangy due to tamarind. Wadi is prepared from Turkish gram. It is something completely different. If you come here in the future, don't miss wadi. You will enjoy it. Patiala is 40 minutes away from here. I have scheduled subscriber meet-up for 6PM. I posted about it on YouTube community on the way. I also post updates on Instagram stories for subscriber meet. Many a times, people are unaware were I post about meet-ups. See you after sometime. We have reached Patiala. I have booked accommodation at Heritage villa. Let us see the room first. The subscribers will be here soon. This is a common area. The room and location of this property is good. We are in the heart of the city. They have a garden and property is a little away from main road In double occupancy, tariff is Rs 2700. I'll take out the luggage later, first let us go down. Hello Ji! Please sit. So, you are all from Patiala? Fantastic! How are you? Please sit. I hurt my hand. Who saw my Mayurbhanj episode? When I visited Chaulabhaja Waterfall in Mayurbhanj.. I slipped there and have been told to use this by the doctor. In Puga Valley, Ladakh also I saw geothermal activity. But this Daldali concept was better. Another wonderful place in Chhattisgarh is Ulta Pani. At Ulta Pani, the water flows from bottom to top. I saw your videos and visited Lucknow. I was born in Assam. Yes, Digboy in Assam. Nice to meet you. Thanks for coming. I may plan a meet-up again when I return. I have to meet someone in Chandigarh on return journey. So, after Bhatinda, I might stop again at Patiala. There is a 50%-80% chance I might stop here. Thanks for coming. So nice of you. Good Morning! It is 6:30AM now. I am going to Baradari Gardens, 1.5KM away. I will do morning walk there for about 45 minutes. As it is winter, the Sun will rise by 6:45AM. Keeping big cities in mind, even in the evening there is not much traffic in Patiala. The traffic is less and the roads are broad. We have reached Baradari Gardens. This is such a beautiful tree. Beautiful! The walking trail is good with huge gardens on either side. You will get a feel of walking in a wide space. I have two major issues health-wise. First is Sleep Apnea. Second is Meniscus Tear. I have had a surgery for Meniscus Tear in left knee. There are multiple tears in the right knee. I am alright for the past three years. There are no issues, but one has to take precaution. If I walk 40 minutes daily.. ...I do some muscle strengthening exercises for 10-15 minutes.. ..along with deep breathing of 40 minutes.. If I spend 1.5 hours each day, these problems will be in control. In this way, Sleep Apnea can be controlled by 70%-80%. I don't know why I don't pay attention to these exercises. You can say I might be giving priority to something else then. It is technically wrong, but this is the truth. I did a good morning walk. I enjoyed fresh cool breeze. I'm going to my hotel from here. This garden is called Baradari Garden as it has 12 gates. Let us go from here. Hello Ji! How are you? I was going to the hotel and saw some people pick-up garbage. I was curious to find out what type of work this group does. I met and spoke to this group. They have collected all this garbage. I want to understand what type of volunteer work they do. It's a group we call, 'My Patiala, I will keep it clean'. It is a community-driven initiative, by the citizens.. ..we are all very respected citizens of our society. We clean-up Patiala 2 days a week, one hour each. We clean-up the plastic, we feel microplastic is reaching our food. We clean the plastic and other garbage. We have done 47 drives so far. We collected more than 20,000KG garbage so far. We are supported by the government and administration. As citizens play an important and vital role in cleaning the city. Not everything will be served on a platter. So, we play an equal role in cleaning our city. We try to make people and children aware of cleanliness. We tell school children how to handle and segregate garbage. We teach how to keep city clean and not litter. This is the initative. We also take-up beautification projects. This is a lovely initiative I am happy to hear about. It is a noble cause. I noticed a pick-up vehicle also came when they cleaned. We tie-up with the corporation. They are supporting us in all these activities. Great! It was lovely to meet you all. I want to hear a Punjabi saying. So can anyone of you try? Guru Nanak Dev Ji had a saying which aligns with what you do. The way you go and meet people.. .. the goodness of this work can't be explained. You are meeting and sharing the goodness around the world. This is remarkable. Thank you. Nice meeting you all. It is our honor and pleasure. Thanks a lot. I liked my stay at Heritage Villa. I will stay here for 3 nights. Accommodation for next 2 days is not available. I will shift to a homestay from here. This place is good. I did subscriber meet-up here last evening. Most of my day will go in seeing the videos. Our last episode is work in progress. I will see the video file and send back to the team. I'll explore Patiala in-between when I get time. We will make the main Visa2explore video tomorrow. I'm here to visit Sri Raj Rajeshwari Temple, Patiala. This is an ancient temple. Let me go in pray and then I will tell you more about it. I went in and offered prayers in the temple. The idol was installed in 1845 by Maharaja Narendra Singh. Generally, tourists know of Goddess Kali temple in Patiala. In reality, this temple is more ancient than Goddess Kali temple. Both these temples are in the same complex. Right. Let me also go and offer prayers at Goddess Kali temple. I offered prayers to Goddess Kali. I'm with the priest Ravi Mishra in the temple premises. I was asking him how old is this temple. Maharaja Bhupinder Singh installed the idol here. The fire light for the lamp was brought from Kali Temple in Kolkata. The face of the idol was pointed towards the jungle. There used to be a jungle on this side. The city was developed behind the idol. So, the jungle was on this side, and the city behind the idol. Thank you. In 1672, Guru Tegh Bahadur, the 9th Sikh Guru visited Lehal. At that time, Patiala was called by the name Lehal. An incurable disease had spread at that time here. Villagers requested the Guru for a miracle cure for the disease. Guru ji meditated here and the disease ended in this village. He also ordered that if anyone suffering from a disease.. prays here wholeheartedly, takes holy dip on Basant Panchami.. that person will be cured of the disease. All his mental or physical worries and pains will end with this. That's why this place is called Dukhniwaran Sahib. There is a pond inside the Gurudwara. I walked around the pond. I felt good. Hymn recitations were happening inside the Gurudwara. I sat inside the Gurudwara and felt a sense of calm. I have come out. This is the market area outside the Gurudwara. You can see how the surroundings here are. I will go to the homestay from here. I have to spend 1-2 hours more for video editing work. Let me go back to the homestay and show the accommodation. We booked this stay through Airbnb in Punjabi Bagh area. We have paid Rs 9850 for this stay for 2 days. This tariff is for 4 people, which is reasonable. The family who runs this stay also live here. There is no food facility here. There is provision to make tea. The stay is good and the area is also peaceful. I will go out for dinner. I won't make a video of it. It is 7:30PM now. I also want to plan for tomorrow's visa2explore video. I will also do the data copy work simultaneously. There is nothing much for now. I have set-up my laptop. See you tomorrow as I will explore Patiala. See you tomorrow. We spent a good time in Patiala today. I mostly spent the day in heritage visit. I explored food and tried to understand the vibe of Patiala city. I have come to Sandeeps in the market area. I wanted to end this episode by tasting something sweet. I'm here to have Kulfi. This shop is beside Ambala Chaat shop. They have 8-10 types of Kulfi. Flavors like Rabri, Mango, Oreo are mentioned. I will try Kesar Pista flavour. Punjab Classic Kulfi, Traditional Homemade recipe. I can feel the taste of purity in the kulfi. This Kulfi is made from pure rabri. It tastes of Kesar (saffron), as I chose that flavour. I had a lot of Kulfi in childhood. In those times, people liked Kulfi more than ice-cream. But now, very few people make kulfi. But I prefer Kulfi over ice cream. I enjoy Kulfi more. I am ending this episode here. Next episode will be a journey from Patiala to Jalandhar. Bye Bye! See you soon. Thanks for your time.
