“We are passionate about exploring,” expressed Sonakshi. “There’s no substitute for firsthand experiences. It’s crucial for us to immerse ourselves in local cultures wherever we journey. Food holds a special place in our travel experiences. I used to think of myself as a food enthusiast until I married someone with an even greater passion for food. We make an exceptional team in our travel adventures.”
“We complement each other, first as friends and now as partners. Traveling is a blend of thrill and tranquility for us,” Zaheer added. “I prefer to adopt the local lifestyle wherever we vacation, especially in savoring the regional cuisine.”
Sonakshi revealed her fondness for leisurely strolls during vacations. “I can’t freely roam here. However, in different parts of the world, I enjoy exploring and discovering unique things. It’s exhilarating to connect with the essence of a place.”
Reflecting on her childhood memories, she reminisced, “During my upbringing, we visited Bihar where my grandmother resided, and she would prepare Litti Chokha, my favorite dish. I deeply miss my grandmother’s culinary creations. I also relish sattu ka paratha. Hence, I opted to showcase Litti Chokha in the Masterclass here. I’m certain my mother will be overjoyed witnessing me cook.”
Emphasizing Sonakshi’s affinity for Indian food, Zaheer shared, “No matter where we vacation, we must indulge in at least one Indian meal. My wife has a profound love for Indian cuisine. I recall our journey to London, where we embarked on a two-hour train ride craving authentic Indian flavors. I escorted her to a delightful restaurant in Brighton, where we savored a thali.”
Zaheer also shared a charming anecdote about his life with his spouse – Sonakshi’s midnight food cravings! “If I forget to stock up on snacks, I’m in a predicament. I have to scour the streets like a wanderer to satisfy her hunger!” he chuckled.
After showcasing the art of preparing Litti Chokha, Sonakshi revealed a shared aspiration with Zaheer. “I’ve already captured Zaheer’s heart, but now that I’ve embarked on my culinary journey, I plan to prepare his favorite dishes. We all know that the path to a man’s heart is through his stomach!” she quipped.
