During her trip to Kashmir, Nauheed Cyrusi got her first taste of the region's famous wazwan. In the video shared on Instagram a few days ago, the actress was seen washing her hands in a portable, hand-engraved copper basin set, traditionally known as tash-t-naer.  Nauheed then explained the tradition behind the meal. “A wazwan is a multi-course ceremonial meal in Kashmiri cuisine. Jaha normally locals chaar ya paach ek ikatthe hoke ek bade thaal se khaate hai” (In this, locals gather in a group of four or five people and enjoy the food from a single thaal). 

She added that the feast can feature up to 36 dishes and is largely mutton-based, though vegetarian options are available.
