Launching Prime in India: A Chaotic Start India, the most requested destination for launching Prime, presented an overwhelming challenge. The event was overcrowded and poorly planned with more people outside than inside the venue. Despite this chaotic start, there was a determination to shift focus and embrace India's vibrant culture.
Exploring Indian Culture and Wildlife Sanctuaries Immersing into Mumbai's bustling life revealed its unique charm—constant honking, warm hospitality, delicious food (even ants), and lively streets. Visiting Ventara sanctuary showcased efforts to rescue animals from harsh conditions; elephants enjoyed therapeutic care while other rescued creatures thrived in paradise-like settings. Temples on-site added spiritual depth as they explored Hindu practices.
Connecting Through Sports & Promoting Hydration Engaging with locals through volleyball matches highlighted their athletic talent while cricket games brought laughter despite unfamiliarity with rules. Sharing samples of Prime hydration drinks received mixed reactions but fostered connections nonetheless. Leaving India left them inspired by its beauty and warmth—with promises of returning soon alongside family.
