Shooting has gained a lot of popularity for offering a unique combination of precision, focus, and excitement. It really makes you feel like an Olympian. But I love shooting the most because it serves as a great way to vent my frustration and channel my anger. The Karni Singh Shooting Range is one of India’s best facilities and it is open to the public. They offer experiences with air rifles and pistols and you don’t have to worry if you're a beginner, it’s all fun and games here.

I have been obsessed with paintball ever since I saw Sonam Kapoor and Fawad Khan in Khoobsurat. Blame it on pop culture, but channeling and romanticising my inner soldier in a paintball warzone is my idea of a perfect day.

For thrill-seekers who don’t mind mud and mess, off-roading is the perfect adventure. You may not be able to go off-roading through dense canopied forests or across the rough trails snaking through deserted areas, but Off Road Adventure Zone in Gurgaon offers an experience that can give you a similar adrenaline rush. Drive as roughly as you can and tear through dirt trails, rocky patches, and muddy stretches.

Price: 1,500 INR if you bring your own car, 3,500 INR if you rent out there.

Probably one of the oldest things on my bucket list but also the scariest. I stumbled upon Jurasik Park Inn during my research and maybe, just maybe, I am about to conquer this fear. They are experts when it comes to bungee jumping and there’s so much more we can do here like zip lining, giant wheel, and step into horror house. From fun zone activities to water parks, there are plenty of options. If you want to explore the entire property you can book yourself a stay here too!
