N2  - Afanasy Nikitin, a 15th century trader, made a historic and fascinating journey from Tver near Moscow to India by way of the Caspian region and Iran, and stayed in India for 3 years before going back to Russia. He visited India even before Vasco Da Gama came and wrote an account of his travels in his 'Voyage over the Three Seas'. 'Footsteps of Nikitin' is the journey of a team comprising of an eclectic mix of historians, economists and trade analysts, explorers, journalists, photographers and the film crew, who travelled through the routes Nikitin followed from Tver to India (North Karnataka). Traversing Nikitin's route, the expedition tries to find out what attracted Nikitin to India and how his journey influenced other countries in the region
