Had the pleasure of listening to @manishmehrotra & @sourishb1963 at the launch of the Godrej Food Trends Report 2026.

Compiled meticulously by @RushinaMG, it’s a report I look forward to reading & referencing every year, and this year I got to contribute to it in a small way.

We @midlandbook, explored the incredible world of #chutneys — from naani ke haath ki classics to bold, contemporary flavours that continue to evolve across India.

It was a pleasure hosting food critic & historian Pushpesh Pant in conversation around #CHUTNEY by @RushinaMG — a rich archive of flavour, culture, and memory. With 40+ essays, 230+ recipes, and insights from 120+ food experts, the book beautifully captures the diversity of chutneys across regions and traditions.

Grateful to everyone who joined us for this engaging and insightful afternoon.

In March, we clocked 150 exhilarating days of CHUTNEY being out in the world. As first-time self-publishers Shekhar (my partner in life's most delicious crimes) and I did everything ourselves to understand the publishing journey. It grew into a family affair ❤️ full of memories!

@krishashok @beastoftraal Although, for me, the challenge is finding diabetic friendly foods. It's very difficult in both cases. I've taken to packing dabbas and snack packs. Hidden sugar and calories are rampant, unfortunately.

Yesterday was a day defined by enuii. By dinnertime I'd reached a point where only using my hands to create something - cooking usually, would rescue me. Ended up smashing out a tomato kuchla inspired by @kishiarora post on how a simple smoky tomato chutney can enliven a meal. 😋
