He joined the Pusa Institute of Hotel Management in Delhi, graduated in 1984, and joined ITDC as a management trainee. Two years later, he rose to the position of executive chef in a posting in Varanasi, and then joined ITDC Hotel Samrat in Delhi and later moved to Mumbai to work for Centaur group for five years.
- Did you know that the popular 90s cooking show Khana Khazana, was originally named Shriman Bawarchi? It was on Sanjeev Kapoor’s insistence that director Hansal Mehta and his Australian partner changed the title to something that sounded “a bit more appealing”
- In the 90s and 2000s, almost every Indian household had a ritual of sitting before their television sets with bated breath, armed with a pen and paper, waiting for the ever-smiling chef to appear on their screens to spill his recipe for the day.
