Whenever
one
thinks
of
Kashmir,
the
first
saying
that
comes
to
your
mind
is
that
of,
'If
there
is
a
paradise
on
earth,
it
is
here,
it
is
here,
it
is
here.'
But
when
anyone
thinks
of
Goa,
the
first
saying
that
comes
to
mind
is…actually
nothing!
One
does
not
waste
time
in
thinking
of
sayings
and
slogans.
All
that
one
does
is
'Break-Free'
from
all
the
daily
stress
and
humdrums.
Ever
wondered
how
the
B-town
celebs
perceive
Goa
as?
Well
read
on
and
feel
refreshed!
Esha
Deol
(actress):
"Since
I'm
a
total
beach
bum,
Goa
is
one
of
the
best
spots
India
has
to
offer
me.
Lately
however
it's
become
too
commercialized
and
not
so
safe.
But
I'll
always
have
fond
memories
of
my
Goan
holidays."
Pooja
Bedi
(TV
host,
socialite)
:
"I
go
to
Goa
at
least
3-4
times
a
year.
I
love
the
spirit
of
openness
and
the
fact
that
I
can
frolic
on
the
beaches
in
a
bikini
with
my
kids
without
being
harassed.
I
love
the
water
sports,
the
restaurants,
and
international
feel."
Sonu
Sood
(actor):
"Yes
Goa
is
my
favourite
holiday
spot.
I
go
there
every
year.
I
think
it's
the
liveliest
place
in
the
world.
Everyone
is
in
the
party
mode.
You
forget
all
your
worries.
Also,
after
having
shot
two
films
there
I
can
swear
there
can
be
no
better
place
to
shoot."
Chitrangda
Singh
(actress):
"Goa
is
the
Indian
Europe.
Great
energy
and
feel!"
Raima
Sen
(actress):
"I
love
Goa.
I
go
at
least
4
times
a
year.
I
love
the
seafood,
beaches
and
shacks.
I
love
the
chilled-out
life
there.
And
the
friendly
vibes
of
the
place.
I
can
comfortably
let
my
hair
down."
Minissha
Lamba
(actress):
"Goa
is
among
the
most
easily
accessible
holiday
spots,
and
one
of
those
places
where
the
beaches
are
'swimmable'."
Arbaaz
Khan
(actor):
"Goa
is
definitely
my
favourite
holiday
spot.
It's
chilled
out,
not
much
hustle-bustle...
I
love
the
place,
people,
food,
and
eating-places.
Being
close
to
Mumbai
it's
an
ideal
vacation
spot."
Tusshar
Kapoor
(actor):
"I've
only
been
to
Goa
for
shootings.
I
love
the
place.
The
ambience
is
excellent...I
love
the
water
and
the
warmth
of
the
people.
It's
the
ultimate
place
to
go
to
get
out
of
the
rat
race."
Imtiaz
Ali
(director):
"Hey
Goa
is
big
in
my
life.
I
go
there
very
often,
but
still
not
as
often
as
I'd
like.
I'd
like
to
live
the
life
of
a
hippy
or
a
nomad
on
one
of
the
beaches
there.
I'd
like
to
just
travel
around
the
beaches
and
villages.
Life
is
not
possible
for
me
without
Goa.
It
takes
the
traffic
and
the
noise
out
of
my
blood
system."
Rohit
Roy
(TV
and
film
actor):
"Goa
has
been
my
favourite
Indian
holiday
destination
from
the
time
I
was
in
college.
My
affair
with
Goa
started
as
a
fling
and
now
it's
a
full-fledged
romance.
Earlier
I'd
go
with
a
bunch
of
friends.
But
now
it's
become
a
hotspot
for
family
holidays.
My
wife
Manasi
and
baby
girl
Kiara
are
as
much
beach
persons
as
I
am!
We
go
to
Goa
once
or
twice
a
year.
I
absolutely
adore
the
place's
chilled-out
pace.
It's
a
great
destresser
after
Mumbai
which
leaves
me
breathless.
I
love
Goan
food,
prawn
curry,
and
rice
being
my
favorite.
Oh
I
love
everything
about
Goa!"
Arshad
Warsi
(actor):
"I
love
Goa.
The
place
slows
me
down.
I
go
there
as
often
as
I
can."
Aryan
Vaid
(actor):
"To
be
honest
Goa
isn't
a
favourite
holiday
spot.
It's
a
beautiful
place.
But
it
doesn't
do
magic
for
me.
Maybe
because
I
live
right
across
the
beach
in
Mumbai.
I
prefer
cool
mountain
places.
Haven't
been
to
Goa
for
two
years.
The
drug
scene
in
Goa
is
scary.
I
was
once
shooting
in
Goa
and
some
locals
misbehaved
with
our
actresses."
Sammir
Dattani
(actor):
"Since
I
am
total
water
person
Goa
is
THE
place
for
me.
At
least
twice
a
year
I
take
off
with
a
bunch
of
friends.
We
never
get
out
of
the
water."
Amrita
Arora
(actress):
"Though
I
like
Goa
my
favourite
holiday
spot
is
London.
I
go
at
least
twice
a
year.
I
love
the
vibe,
the
shopping
and
weather."
Iqbal
Khan
(TV
actor):
"I've
never
been
to
Goa
for
a
holiday.
It's
always
been
work.
I
think
it's
an
over-hyped
place.
Besides
I
prefer
hills
to
beaches."
Niharika
Singh
(model,
actress):
"I
like
Goa.
But
it
isn't
my
favourite
holiday
spot.
Yes,
I've
been
to
Goa.
But
I'm
not
one
of
those
who
makes
it
a
point
to
go
there
every
year
religiously.
I
love
the
seafood
and
flea
markets
in
Goa."
Priyanka
(Nisha)
Kothari
(actress):
"Ya
Goa
is
cool.
I
like
everything
about
it.
Though
I
usually
travel
wherever
my
work
takes
me,
I
don't
mind
going
to
Goa
just
so."
Tanushree
Dutta
(actress):
"Goa
is
a
favourite
holiday
spot.
I
manage
to
go
twice
a
year.
What
I
like
best
are
the
little
shacks
by
the
beaches
and
the
old-world
charm
about
the
place."
Malaika
Arora
(VJ,
actress):
"I
don't
think
there's
any
better
place
to
holiday
than
Goa.
I
love
it!
My
husband
Arbaaz
and
I
always
dreamt
of
owning
a
home
there.
And
now
our
dream
is
coming
true."
Koena
Mitra
(actress):
"Goa
is
one
of
my
favourite
holiday
spots.
You
just
can't
get
bored
of
Goa.
I'm
a
beach
girl
and
I
love
Goan
seafood.
I
also
love
their
music
and
their
parties
are
high-energy.
Winter
is
the
right
time
to
go
to
Goa."
