The ten, one hour episodes will take you on an unexpected journey to the most enchanted places in India.

Rithvik Dhanjani, Host of Man VS Job says, "It’s going to be a great challenge for me.  I have never done any of these things and I know it’s not going to be easy.  It’s a show that's definitely going to change my view on life and help me grow as a person.  Sometimes we take the smallest things in life for granted and I wonder how difficult it must be for these people who are doing these jobs as for them every day has a new challenge – one of survival, life, that day’s dinner, etc. which is so very different from the challenges I face in my life as an actor and entertainer.  And for me to do these different challenging jobs back to back is going to be a learning curve"

Sangeetha Aiyer- Vice President and Head Marketing, A+E NetworksTV18, says, “It’s exciting news for all our viewers that we are now creating local content and launching shows that are India specific and shot here.
