But Vada Pav isn’t the only food that warms Rupali’s heart. Being a Bengali at heart, she also has a deep love for vegetarian Bengali cuisine. She revealed to Curly Tales in 2022 that the “Durga Pujo bhog” (food offered during the Durga Puja festival) is her ultimate comfort food. Dishes like Chola dal, Shukto (vegetable curry), Mochar Ghonto (banana flower dish), and Chhuchuri (vegetable side dish) are some of her favorites.
Rupali Ganguly even shared that her husband, Ashwin K Verma, is a fantastic cook who spoils her with delicious home-cooked meals. He even packs food for her on the sets of “Anupamaa,” a sweet gesture that speaks volumes about their love and care for each other.
Rupali’s love for Vada Pav reflects a wider trend in Bollywood. Many celebrities have publicly declared their adoration for this humble street food. For example, actor Manoj Bajpayee shared that he often picks up Vada Pav parcels from his favorite joint near his daughter’s school in Mumbai.
