Vidya Balan and Big B Bond Over Dahi Chawal on KBC 16's Pehla Padaav

During a question in the Pehla padaav related to food, Mr. Bachchan asks the actors about the dietary restrictions they face in their profession. He then inquires of both Vidya Balan and Kartik Aaryan about the food they simply can't resist. Vidya replies, saying, “Dahi chawal. Whenever I crave comfort, I have dahi chawal.” Speaking about enjoying street food, she shared an anecdote, saying, “I grew up in Chembur, where there used to be a vada pav stall near the post office. Sir, I’m salivating just thinking about it!” Amitabh chimes in, mentioning a place in Chembur known for its incredible gulab jamun, saying, “The gulab jamun there is also amazing.” He also notes that in South India, everyone enjoys dahi chawal, to which Vidya quips, “Dahi bhaat is the remedy for everything.”

Kartik then shares that he is a fan of street food, specifically mentioning a Chinese stall in Juhu, near Amitabh Bachchan’s home. He explains that he has been going to this stall even during his phase as a struggling actor and still visits it regularly, at times, at around 2 AM. He humorously adds that he frequents it so often that they named a dish after him, calling it "The Kartik Special.” Amitabh Bachchan remarked, “There’s something special about eating on the roadside, and this place is near my house. I’ll visit it to try the ‘Kartik Special.’” Vidya adds, “Sir if you go there, they might change the name of the place!” 

Mr. Bachchan then shares an interesting incident involving his grandson, Agastya Nanda. While studying in New York, Agastya often visited a nearby Indian restaurant and he noticed a dish named “Amitabh Bachchan.” Being quite astute, Agastya asks the staff about the dish. After eating it, he mentioned to them, “You know, he’s my grandfather.”Initially, they didn’t believe him, so he showed them a photo on his phone, and as a result, he started receiving free meals from there for two years! Kartik laughs and adds, “Sir, wherever I go to eat at Juhu, they continue to charge me full price! ”
