2. You gained your initial fame after winning Masterchef India. It has been a long journey since then. How has life changed for you when it comes to the sense of responsibility that comes along fame?
Life has most definitely changed ! Time management becoming significantly more important now. Commitments and growth need planning.

Cooking Travel Shoots and writing are all things that I love so the responsibility doesn’t burden me even slightly !

3. ‘Chef’ as a domain has always been ruled by patriarchy. What does it feels like to rule this Aspect?
My Inspiration comes from practical experiences of watching Chefs and Home Chefs ! Eating and experiencing new flavours ! Gosh there are so many talented Chefs and potential Chefs in this world ! It is a real delight to watch and learn from them. Cooking is a non stop learning of new techniques and discovering new flavours and tastes ! One lifetime is not enough as a Chef is what I would say.

4. As a chef, where do you find your room of inspiration?
Cooking is an art form but unlike all other art forms Food requires all senses ! So to practically travel and smell the world kitchens is the edge in evolving in this art form ! Yes schools ! Recipe books and Television and Digital shows teach one a lot but in none of these is the sense of smell aroused ! So smell your way to success as a Chef is my Mantra and advice to aspiring Chefs.
