To be exact, I will start;
In Chennai, and then on to Madurai, Bangalore, someplace near Jogfalls(to visit a friend), Mumbai, Jodhpur, Jaisalmer, Jaipur, Agra, Varanasi and then Delhi. There were more places, but we managed(me and my friend from Germany(she was overly excited at first and wanted to visit more places)) to cut down and reduce. Mid August to mid September.
I'm still considering whether or not to bring my 24mm and although a telephoto would be useful, I just decided against it because of the weight. Old manual lenses are just too damned heavy. I'm also considering whether to air out my Praktica with it's smaller lenses.
Also with regards to the slide film, 30-40 rolls is a little much imo. I doubt I'll be carrying that much, if any at all. Regardless of how colourful India is, my P&S can capture everything in unbridled over-saturated colours. I prefer to shoot B/W film. Personal choice I guess
