Sonam Kapoor and Anand Ahuja recently hosted an intimate, sumptuous dinner party for about six to eight guests. Wonder what they ate? Their Private Chef Velton Saldanha posted a BTS video that captures all the preparation behind planning the food for the party. The video has gone viral on Instagram with about 2.6 million views, offering fans a glimpse into the life of Sonam Kapoor. In the video, the chef shared that they decided on a fun, relaxed Indian theme, "mixing thali elements with pre-plated elegance." He shared, "Planning was intense, especially with potential allergies and last-minute changes, but we were prepared for it."
The evening began with a “cocktail hour” featuring a grazing board and a unique Aloo tikki chaat, where the “dahi was a chilled coconut yogurt with parsley and cilantro chutney, and the tikki was a spiced sweet potato and Almondine tikki,” the chef wrote in the caption.
