Part III
The next day as decided, we went on our way to Manali and visited places like Hadimba Temple and Solang Valley. Having lunch, at noon we then started for Rhotang Pass, one of the major attractions of Manali situated at many meters above sea level. On our way to Rhotang Pass, we got heavy traffic with cars jammed and moving at a speed of 1 km per 30 minutes and even less. The reason for such a jam was that Bollywood debutants of those times, Bobby Deol and Twinkle Khanna were shooting for their debutant movie ‘Barsaat’ there. We took the opportunity to click them in our cameras but wondering who they were and why were we so excited to click them, as they were freshers and we knew nothing about them.
Then came another twist in the journey when our car halted and was not ready to move a single step ahead. My dad and brother somehow by pushing and sometimes by doing some tricks managed to take it to Rhotang Pass. To our surprise, when we reached Rhotang Pass it was evening and weather was stormy. But we all were adamant that since we reached there after so much difficulty, we must get at least few photographs within 15 minutes or so, so as to have a proof that we went there.
