Pocket Aces' Gobble launches travel series ‘Bazaar Travels' hosted by Barkha Singh

In the thick of the current lockdown caused by COVID-19, Pocket Aces’ lifestyle platform Gobble has launched a 4-episodes travel web series called 'Bazaar Travels’. The show captures popular influencer Barkha Singh travelling to some of India’s oldest, very unique, and most popular markets.

The first episode:

The first episode of the weekly series went live on May 12 on Gobble’s Facebook, Instagram and Youtube channel. Remaining three episodes will go live in the coming weeks.

Each of the markets that we visit in the series are distinct and have been shopping destinations for decades. In a world where fast fashion is the norm, Bazaar Travels brings to the audience the best of handicrafts, artisans and local markets. Be it the jewellery in Jaipur's Johri Bazaar, the bridal wear in Delhi's Chandni Chowk, the handicraft in Jodhpur's Sardaar Market, or the handwoven sarees in Kolkata's Gariahat, each episode has a unique thematic experience.

Talking about the series, Sonalika Mehra, Channel Manager, Gobble, said, “The current COVID-19 lockdown situation has left many of us missing the adventure of travelling and exploring exotic new destinations. While travelling is not an option right now, we at Gobble are happy to launch Bazaar Travels – to help you explore the wonderful markets in popular cities like Jaipur, Jodhpur, Delhi, and Kolkata while staying at home. The show is an eclectic mix of heartfelt conversations, aesthetic visuals, an engaging background score, and the history behind India’s most-visited markets. We are confident that it will be a great watch for those who love shopping tourism, budget shopping, and travel in general.”
