Ayushmann Khurrana is an avid foodie. The actor, on Sunday, decided to enjoy a traditional Punjabi sweet dish, Panjeeri. It looks like the actor had homemade panjeeri made using a recipe by renowned chef Ranveer Brar. Ayushmann took to his Instagram Stories to share the delightful result of his culinary adventure. Posting a picture of Panjeeri along with Ranveer Brar's recipe book, A Journey Through India, Ayushmann proudly captioned the image, “Panjeeri and the recipes of [Ranveer Brar],” and added a heartfelt “Thanks paaji” with gesture emoji.

For those unfamiliar, Panjeeri is a beloved North Indian dish made from whole wheat flour, ghee (clarified butter), sugar, and a mix of dry fruits and nuts such as cashews, almonds, and raisins. It is often made during festivals or as a nutritious snack. The dish is flavoured with cardamom, and sometimes saffron, which infuses it with a rich, aromatic taste.
Last month, the actor was spotted dining at Chef Vikas Khanna's iconic New York restaurant, Bungalow. The fine-dining hotspot has become a favourite among celebrities, and Ayushmann's visit only added to its growing fame. The restaurant has attracted numerous high-profile guests, including Aamir Khan, Sarah Jessica Parker and even billionaire Jeff Bezos. In a heartwarming post on Instagram, Vikas Khanna shared that he served Ayushmann the same meal he had previously prepared for Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan. Vikas recalled fond memories of working with Ayushmann during their earlier interactions and praised him as “absolutely the nicest, coolest guy.” Read more here.
