Bollywood actor Akshay Kumar is currently in the news for his upcoming film Bhoot Bangla and his reality show Wheel of Fortune, in which he is playing the role of the host. Recently, the actor discussed his food choices in a conversation with a digital content creator. It has been revealed that the actor loves traditional Indian food more than contemporary international cuisine, which has become popular in the current scenario.
Akshay Kumar Reveals His Favourite Food
During a conversation with digital creator Viraj Ghelani, Akshay Kumar shared his views on modern global food trends. The actor jokingly spoke about dishes such as avocado toast and truffle mushroom pasta, which have gained popularity in various restaurants around the world.
The actor stated that he would prefer traditional home food instead of modern, expensive food. He also mentioned that traditional food would provide greater comfort.
Akshay Kumar's Love For Gujarati Food
Viraj Ghelani, a Gujarati, talked about the fixed meal habits that his family had when he was growing up. He mentioned that different dishes were cooked on different days of the week. Viraj said, “Main Gujarati family se aata hoon. Hamare ghar mein routine hota hai: Monday ko tuar ki daal, Tuesday normal, Wednesday moong ki daal, Friday kadhi, aur Saturday ko urad ki daal.”
Hearing all this, Akshay immediately mentioned, "Yaar Gujarati khana mereko bahut maza aata hai. Mereko toh Gujarati thali bhi bahut sahi lagti hai."
Jokes About Modern Food Trends
Viraj also mentioned that after his marriage, his food habits changed. He said that he started eating food such as avocado, khameeri roti, and truffle mushroom pasta, which are very expensive and not very tasty, but he still eats them because his wife insists.
Akshay laughed after hearing this and asked what the real benefit of eating such food was. Viraj said that he himself did not know the real benefit of eating such food. Akshay said that he himself did not know what an avocado was, but later he found that it was actually a very interesting fruit.
