She shared a hilarious video about travelling in your 30's that will surely make anyone laugh out loud. Anshula's video featured her looking at her phone instead of enjoying the sights of Masai Mara.

The montage featured glimpses of her wildlife safari, with lions, hyenas, hippos, and zebras visible.
