Soorma Kunal Jai Singh

Recently, Kunal Jai Singh was in Bhopal and I went to meet him over lunch. Conversation over food ended up into more of an interview. Kunal says, he loves food and whenever he’s not working, he would either catch up with friends over lunch or go to the gym. He’s an absolute food lover and one can actually see him relishing his meal on his sets.

Kunal Jai Singh, who’s born and brought up in Mumbai, is an actor by profession. Here’s what he said about himself:

Q1: When did you know you wanted to be an actor?

Q2: What is your Favorite Food Memory?

A3. Emmm.. I follow Master Chef India. So, Mr. Sanjeev Kapoor and all the other judges are my favourite and I admire them.

Q5: Your Favorite Restaurant.

A5. The one I visited in Australia. Cannot recall the name but trust me… The food over there is heavenly.

Q6: If not an actor, what would you have been?

A6. Honestly, I haven’t imagined myself in any other stream. I think I was very clear that I wanted to do into acting career. But, I haven’t really imagined myself without acting. But, just in case, if I wasn’t an actor maybe I would have been working in some corporate company.

Rapid Fire:

Q1: Veg or Non Veg?

A1. Emmmm I guess Veg!! Depends on the mood.

Q6: Chocolate Ganache or Gulab Jamun?

A6. Chocolate Ganache

Q7. How do you find Bhopal and its food?

A7. This is the most peaceful city I’ve visited in a while. People are so friendly and helpful. It’s more like a hill station. In the morning, I tried this Poha Jalebi Combination which is I think is quiet famous in Bhopal. I literally loved it!

Q8. Something you wish to say about “The Super Chatori?”

A8. Well, my dear Super Chatori, thank you for an amazing lunch. This was one of the best interviews I’ve ever had because it wasn’t boring and the conversation was more about food and not my serial. Since you mentioned about your blog, I’m glad to be a part of it and may you take your blog to newer heights. My best wishes to you.
