When God has a plan… From selling bhatura chole at Vivek Public School in 1989, to opening Lawrence Garden Banquet from the back of my house in Amritsar in 1990. In 1991, I chose culinary arts— a decision that embarrassed almost everyone except my grandmother. There were years of humiliation I rarely speak about. Moments that nearly broke me. In 2000, when my banquet was torn down, I almost gave up. Instead, I moved to the United States and started over. Cleaning homes. Selling food on the streets of TriBeCa. Sleeping at Grand Central. Experiencing homelessness at NYC Rescue. Sleepless nights. Being called “Curry Boy” on the 7 train. And still, I kept going. From there… 8 Michelin stars. Then losing myself again. Then starting over—one last time as a promise to my sister—with Bungalow. And now… TIME100 Most Influential People in the World 2026. I’m still trying to process it. The journey continues.



Here is Yuzvendra Chahal smoking a cigarette and then dumping it on the road shamelessly Ironically, he was a brand ambassador for the Swachh Bharat campaign in Mysuru This guy is a prime example of why money can't buy you manners or civic sense Once a Chapri always a Chapri

Sorry chuds, but NJ-12 is a diverse American tapestry that speaks dozens of languages. While you guys focus on "woke", I'm running for Congress to help everyday people, no matter what language they speak at home.

Hit me with the craziest Mumbai history facts you know.

The Brother Deshpande Memorial Church at Kasba Peth in Pune: Christianity is often imagined and viewed through an European and westernised lens (aided in no small measure by Bollywood movies), ignoring the fact that the faith has strong indigenous roots in India. The Brother Deshpande Memorial Church at Kasba Peth in Pune stands testimony to this. It was built in the memory of Ramchandra Pralhad Deshpande, who was born in Maharashtra's Nagpur district to an orthodox Brahmin family on 13 May 1874. In 1917, he started serving as a priest at Christ Church in Rasta Pet. His house was known as ‘Deshpande’s Math’ by the poor and needy. He passed away on 25 June 1949 and the church in his memory was founded in 1969. The service in this Protestant church takes place in Marathi. The site of the church is also interesting. It may be built on a spot which included the 15th century Killa e Hissar fort. #Pune #history #PuneHistory #heritage #Christianity #ChurchesinIndia #PuneHeritage #Maharashtra #PuneChurches #ChurchesinPune #KasbaPeth #heritage

Even Buddhists believe in rebirth and past lives. I wonder how Babasaheb would be reborn as and where?
