Samantha Instagram – 🖤@travelandleisureindia Posted @withregram • @travelandleisureindia This December, Expo 2020 Dubai (@expo2020dubai ) and its dazzling offerings make for the perfect setting for our cover shoot with actor Samantha (@samantharuthprabhuoffl ), who gets candid about her love for the emirate and the changing entertainment scene in India. We close the year with the same drive that kick-started it—a list of 10 sustainable boutique hotels helps you plan an eco-friendly holiday in India or abroad. Find out who was voted as the best in travel and hospitality in the 10th edition of India’s Best Awards. In a special category called ‘IBA Icons’, we honour 10 individuals who have consistently pushed the envelope and emerged as trendsetters. Intriguing stories from around the world—Arunachal’s Mishmi Hills, Italy, Chile’s Lake District—inspire you to live in the moment even as you look forward to a brighter and better year ahead.
