He
played
an
Indian
cook
lost
in
the
lanes
of
London
in
Ramji
Londonwaley.
And
he
loves
to
binge
on
food
as
much
as
he
loved
to
serve
it
in
his
last
Hindi
flick.
Here's
R.Madhavan
talking
on
his
favorite
food
and
then
what
goes
into
burning
those
extra
calories.
Thought
on
food
I
am
allergic
to
non-vegetarian
food.
I
hate
very
spicy
food
and
methi
too.
I
am
a
huge
fan
of
Pani-puri.
It
makes
my
mouth
water.
From
my
childhood
days
I've
loved
pani-puri
and
curd
rice.
My
childhood
memory
is
incomplete
without
the
churan
that
was
available
outside
our
school.
I
always
carry
digestive
biscuits.
In
my
fridge
you
will
always
find
curds.
I
binge
on
desserts.
I
let
go
of
myself
on
Sundays.
We
eat
out
on
Sundays,
lunch
as
well
as
dinner.
I
love
Indian
desserts,
especially
rasgullas
and
rasmalai.
I
am
also
partial
to
gajar
halwa,
petha
and
black
forest
pastry.
I
round
up
the
Sunday
meal
with
a
meetha
paan.
My
mom
is
a
very
good
cook.
She
makes
excellent
puliyogare
(a
South
Indian
rice
dish).
Fitness
mantra
I
think
health
is
the
most
important
thing
for
every
human
being.
So
one
must
be
aware
about
what
his
or
her
diet
has
to
be.
I
give
more
preference
to
my
health.
I
manage
to
see
the
rising
sun.
My
day
starts
with
Yoga.
My
breakfast
includes
fresh
fruits
and
milk.
I
like
brown
bread,
paneer
sandwich,
idlis
or
upma
for
breakfast.
I
am
a
hardcore
vegetarian
and
strictly
follow
the
protein
diet.
Lot
of
water,
health
drinks
and
protein
shake
is
my
energy.
I
don't
believe
in
a
strict
diet
regiment
and
supplements
but
in
a
good
workout
session.
I
work
out
an
hour
every
day.
I
have
gym
at
my
place
so
I
don't
have
to
go
out
for
it.
It
keeps
me
fit
but
yoga
balances
both
body
and
mind.
I
prefer
vegetables
and
rotis
in
lunch,
less
on
carbohydrates.
I
don't
go
for
a
heavy
lunch
or
dinner.
I
try
and
sleep
as
early
as
possible.
Eat
healthy
and
stay
healthy
is
a
fitness
mantra
for
me.
