Joshua Jackson came straight off the shooting of Season Three of the multilinear mindbender The Affair. Adam Haggaig took time off from promoting Bombshell; The Hedy Lamarr Story where he is co-producer with actor and activist Susan Sarandon. And Garreth Wood, the restaurateur son of retired oil tycoon, Sir Ian Wood, and founder of the Adventure in Philanthropy Foundation flew in from Edinburgh to power an auto rickshaw in the land of his wife, Nicola’s father.

They were just a few of the bold face names rallying for elephants 500 km across Rajasthan in all manner of vibrantly coloured vehicles—from auto rickshaws, Royal Enfield motorbikes to vintage jeeps—forming an 85-strong convoy of adventurers, in a charity fundraising rally between November 1 and November 4.
