The Documentary

Welcome to my blog. I’m a passionate storyteller, teacher, adventure-journalist and sportsman.  This blog explores those subjects.

Two Cultures, One Body is a travel-adventure documentary in which I take my father’s ashes to be immersed in the Ganges, India.  I look at what migrant heritage means to mixed-race and second-generation people in Britain, by following my father’s migratory route in reverse, along the Hippy Trail, which thousands of English kids took to uncover the riches of Indian culture, myth and religion.

 

  • Presenter/Producer: Ash Bhardwaj
  • Producer/Director: Russ Malkin
  • Cameraman: Ben Bishop

As an adventure journalist, I have written for Bremont’s Magnificent Man, Sunday Times Travel Magazine, Beyond Limits and Various ski magazines.  I also work in adventure film and television production with Big Earth.

About Ash Bhardwaj

A storyteller, teacher, explorer, writer and sportsman. I'm currently writing and presenting a documentary, taking my father's migratory route from India in reverse, to take my his ashes to the Ganges. Along the way I will be looking at the links between the two countries and the development of British Asian culture as a whole. At each point I will hear the story of someone linked to both places, telling us about something with bridges the gap: cricket; yoga; polo; business; tantra; astrology; fashion and food; music; politics and culture. I'm also putting together a ski conditioning programme to improve skiing performance and reduce the occurrence of injuries.
