Is there any particular dish you cling on to?        
Yes, there's this gujju dish called undhiyu that my mom makes in an amazing way. And of course, pasta made by my wife.

Diplomatic answer?
Yes I have to be yaar! I live in a joint family!(smiles)

Which is your favorite sweet dish?
I don't exactly have a sweet tooth. But my dinner is never complete without a piece of chikki. That is something I simply must have every night.

Do you cook?
No, not at all!

Is there any food that you would not eat as a child, but eat now?
Yes, I never used to eat udith ke dal ka papad as I was allergic to it. But since the past five years, thankfully my allergy has been gotten rid of. So I can have it now.

Which is your favorite restaurant in the city?
I usually don't go out to eat much. So can't really say.

Do you have food fights?
No. I have the highest regards for Annapoorna Devi. And I believe that food is something which should not be wasted or played with. Many people in our country find it difficult to gather a time's meal, so it's simply unfair to be throwing it around.

Which is your favorite drink?
Jaljira

With which drink do you start your day?
Hot water with turmeric. I used to have difficulty delivering my dialogues due to cough problem. So my friend suggested this home remedy and its working wonderfully on my throat.

What is the strangest dish you have ever tried?
Khari with dal. (laughs)

Any embarrassing situation you have faced while eating your food?
Yes. I'm a vegetarian and my idea of doing something wild was to try non-vegetarian food. So I along with a friend went to this really posh restaurant where they served fish. When our order came to the table all my excitement went out and I was like- This stinks! I can't eat this! My friend told me that that's the fragrance of sea-food and just eat it. I eventually did take a bite and before I knew it, all the vegetarian food that I had eaten earlier that day just came out. And the horrified looks on the crisply dressed waiters is something I'll never forget!

What do you do for midnight food cravings?
Milk.

Your idea of a proper diet?
See I have a very good idea of a proper diet. Like eating on time. Avoiding oily foods. Eating frequent but small meals. Not having heavy dinner after 7:30 at night. I know all that. But what to do? (Looks at his big belly) I just can't implement it (smiles).
