ITH his delicious recipes served alongside tongue-in-cheek jokes and 'namak, swaad anusaar', for nearly two decades, Sanjeev Kapoor's iconic show Khana Khazana brought him into the homes (and plates) of many Indian families. "When you do something, you don't know where you will reach. You just keep on doing your best and if your effort is there, rewards will come," says Kapoor, who was in Bengaluru recently.

Fondly recalling a time when he used to savour Bengaluru's dosae, he laughs, saying, "I used to definitely enjoy that, though it was always full of butter and ghee."
