Indo-Canadian actress Lisa Ray, who has been endorsing luxury travel brand InsightVacations, says she pitches India as a "Full on" destination for foreign tourists to visit.

"It is my primary passion to promote the image of India and encourage foreigners to visit here. While it's hard to encompass the complexity of modern India in a single phrase, I've been using the refrain 'Full on' to describe the engaging experience of India for travellers," the 42-year-old, who likes to call herself a "global Indian", said in a statement.

During her recent visit to Australia, which coincided with the visit of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Lisa stayed in the same suite where US President Barack Obama once resided.

 

Lisa feels "honoured" that she was in the same suite and said "the suite is the most stunning one in the Intercontinental in Sydney with a view of the Opera House from every window".
