Meet Arjun, the cook!

After famous Bollywood personalities like Kareena Kapoor Khan and Karan Johar graced the show, the amusing and quick-witted actor, Arjun Kapoor, joins the star-studded line-up of the celebrity cooking show ‘Star vs Food’ on Discovery . Under the mentorship of Gulaam Gouse Deewani, Head Chef at The Butler & The Bayleaf, Arjun entered the kitchen for the first time to try his hand at cooking the very flavourful Laal Maas and Chapli Kabab in a bid to surprise his uncle and aunt – Sanjay and Maheep Kapoor.

As the Kapoors enjoy royal Mughlai flavours and believe in the tradition of having more food on the table than people, the new chef, Arjun, decided to prepare dishes that his folks would love to indulge in! Taking up cooking as a challenge Arjun says, “The trickiest thing about today’s cooking is the fact that I have to enjoy myself while still learning something new and that’s not always easy.”

While showing off his cooking skills, Arjun also revealed his weight transformation from fat to fit over the years and recollected how his indulgence in food was uncontrollable as he weighed 150 kilos by the time he was sixteen years old!
