The 31-year-old continued, "First and foremost the show is about India and how beautiful that country is, about the culture and the people, but then obviously the back story is the relationship between a father and his sons."
Adam went on to reveal there were some surprises on the way, such as meeting some relatives they didn't know existed, saying it was a, "Crazy experience, a once in a lifetime experience."
The actor explained the most incredible thing was, "How strong the Thomas gene is. We met these family relatives and straight away we knew they were related to us. It was like we'd known them all of our lives. We were just so alike, our mannerisms especially, but dad looked like them as well.
"It was unbelievable, it was just a humbling experience. Just the people out there are just content. They pretty much have nothing, and yet they have everything."
During the interview, with Fleur East, James and producer Matt, Adam also revealed how he's been adapting to the lockdown life. The actor, who also owns a restaurant, revealed that he'd been delivering food from the restaurant before they had a permanent solution.
Absolutely India: Mancs in Mumbai is a six-part series, and is currently showing on ITV. It is available on watch on demand through ITV Hub.
