Rajveer Singh Makes History with Rajveer X India’s Luxury Drive: A 10,101 KM in a Luxury Caravan Journey Across India

Rajveer X India’s Luxury Drive has emerged as a groundbreaking digital movement and luxury travel sensation, capturing national attention and dominating online media. This historic journey, driven by Rajveer Singh is India’s first and only 10,101 km in a luxury caravan expedition where a solo content creator experienced a staycation at every single property of one hotel group—The LaLiT Group —across the country.

A Journey of Grit, Grandeur, and Glory

Flagged off from The LaLiT Mumbai on April 13, the drive remained true to its planned route even after the terrorist attack in Pahalgam on April 22. Rajveer continued his journey with undeterred spirit, visiting The LaLiT Srinagar from May 4 to 6, boldly portraying Kashmir’s beauty and hospitality to the world.

On May 7, while traveling from Kashmir toward Kartarpur, he witnessed Operation Sindoor—a strategic Indian security operation. Just a day later, in Amritsar at 2 AM on May 8, Rajveer experienced a blackout caused by Pakistan’s drone attack, which was neutralized by India's defense systems—proving again that no force could derail this record-breaking journey.

Highways That Shaped the Journey

Best Overall Route: Kerala to Goa – Stunning landscapes, perfect roads, cultural richness.

The LaLiT Srinagar – Hospitality that touched the soul, with breathtaking lake views.

Designistic Global Media was the post production partner who played a crucial role in transforming the journey into a cinematic experience.

Entrepreneurs such as Dr. Vishal Kalra, Yukit Vora, Harmeet Singh Gupta, and MasterChef Ishijyot Surri rallied behind the initiative.
