Mumbai: Singapore Tourism Board's travel series 'The Great Indian Family Holiday: Singapore Edition' will stream exclusively on JioHotstar from 31 October. The four-episode series follows four Indian celebrities and their families as they explore experiences across Singapore. The series features actor Pratik Gandhi exploring Singapore across three generations, television host Maniesh Paul with his kids, actress Sameera Reddy, and comedian Atul Khatri with his family. It is described as following the families as they trade their routines for experiences in the city. Each episode follows the families to attractions including HyperDrive, Chinatown, Mandai Rainforest Adventure, Singapore Oceanarium, Peranakan Museum, and Wings of Time in Sentosa. The series is presented as showing Singapore through real families and real moments. Commenting on the series, Serene Woon, Area Director, India, Middle East and South Asia, Singapore Tourism Board, said, "Indian families don't just want a holiday - they want moments they'll still be talking about years later. Singapore is that kind of place. It's a city that surprises you, where three generations can each find something that feels made just for them, yet also come together over experiences that bring the whole family closer. Through this series, we wanted to show that side of Singapore - not through a brochure, but through real families, real moments and the kind of joy that simply can't be scripted. If even one family watches this and thinks, 'that could be us', we've done our job." Actor Pratik Gandhi said, "As a family, we don't often get the chance to experience so many new things together, especially across three generations. In Singapore, seeing everyone from the oldest to the youngest enjoy themselves in their own way was probably the most special part for me. There were so many firsts, and I think that's what made this trip different. The bee experience and the Circle of Trust really stayed with me. I didn't expect these to be the moments I'd keep thinking about, but they gave me a chance to pause and reflect, and we're still talking about them. To be able to share these experiences with my family, the people I'm closest to, made them even more meaningful. I think we've come back with something really precious: memories that all of us, across generations, will carry with us for the rest of our lives." Actor Maniesh Paul and his wife, Sanyukta Paul, said, "As parents, we're always aware of how quickly the kids are growing up, which makes time like this together even more precious. Singapore gave us the best of both worlds, from adrenaline-filled adventures at HyperDrive and Universal Studios Singapore to quieter moments surrounded by nature and wildlife at Mandai Wildlife Reserve. We got to try new things, step out of our routines and see the world through the kids' eyes. Watching their excitement and being part of these experiences with them is something we'll always treasure." Actress Sameera Reddy and her entrepreneur husband, Akshai Varde, said, "What we love about Singapore is how it gives families the chance to step away from everyday routines and simply enjoy being together. Whether it's experiencing the thrill of MegaZip, stepping into the magical world of Harry Potter: Visions of Magic or discovering wildlife at the Night Safari, there's something new for all of us to experience and enjoy. The Night Safari was a highlight for us, offering a completely different way to experience wildlife. It's these moments of shared excitement, laughter and discovery that make a family holiday truly special. We're returning with wonderful memories and the feeling that there's still so much more for us to discover together in Singapore." Comedian Atul Khatri said, "For us, a family holiday is always better when there's good food involved. Singapore was the perfect mix of family time, new experiences and plenty of culinary discoveries. From following clues through Chinatown to finding local favourites and enjoying a meal together, every day brought something different. We made the most of everything Singapore had to offer, from outdoor adventures and beautiful sunsets to a little golf for me. It was a holiday that kept all of us happy, well-fed and entertained and gave us so many lovely memories to take home." The release stated that STB has partnered with Cleartrip to bring curated holiday packages live on the platform, including itineraries inspired by the families featured in the series. https://youtu.be/zSRddINd2HU
