Viral Video Shows Chandigarh Food Stall Selling Veg Chilli Chicken, Confuses Internet
In India, food isn't just about flavour, it is also about identity. And one debate that refuses to cool down is the age-old clash between vegetarians and non-vegetarians. From dinner tables to social media threads, people across the country love to argue over what's healthier, tastier, or more authentically "Indian." Our culinary landscape has long been a melting pot of such heated conversations. The veg vs non-veg divide has sparked fresh discussions, with passionate voices on both sides. Now, cutting through the seriousness of the debate, a food vlogger's hilarious take on the issue has gone viral online. Shared on Instagram, the clip features vlogger Jonas at a food stall in Chandigarh that's serving up something called 'Veg Chilli Chicken'-- a dish that has left the internet scratching its head. In the video, Jonas says, "We are in Chandigarh and they've cracked this whole veg-non veg debate. Nowhere in India are they as innovative as here." Pointing to the stall's signboard, he adds, "Here, they have veg chilli chicken. Nowhere in India will you see this innovation, only in Chandigarh." Watch the video here: View this post on Instagram A post shared by Jonas | Swedish Tourist (@iamjonasax) The clip soon went viral. A user commented, "Chicken identify as a vegetarian." Another joked, "The chicken was vegetarian, you misunderstood it." "Welcome to Chandigarh mate," a comment read. A user commented, "I saw a place in Mumbai selling Veg Hamburger." Another clarified, "It is really veg I have eaten it is made up of soya." Nowadays, vegan meat is becoming a popular alternative for people who want the taste of meat without actually eating animals. Made entirely from plants, this mock meat is crafted to look, feel, and taste like the real thing. It usually contains ingredients like soy or pea protein for that meaty texture, wheat gluten for chewiness, and sometimes even jackfruit or mushrooms for a fibrous, savoury bite. Legumes like lentils and chickpeas are added for protein, while veggies like beetroot give it a nice colour and juiciness. Oils like coconut or sunflower help with that fatty, juicy feel we associate with meat. To top it all off, a mix of spices and flavourings gives vegan meat its bold, meaty flavour, making it a solid choice for burgers, nuggets, kebabs, or even mince.

Sitaare Zameen Par audience reviews: Aamir Khan's film wins hearts with strong word-of-mouth - ‘A learning for all'
After a three-year hiatus from the big screen, Aamir Khan is finally ready to return to cinemas with Sitaare Zameen Par, which hits theatres on June 20. Directed by RS Prasanna and co-starring Genelia Deshmukh , the film is being positioned as a spiritual successor to the 2007 classic Taare Zameen Par, this time spotlighting themes of inclusivity, empathy, and determination through the lens of sports. While a star-studded screening was held in Mumbai on Thursday evening, what's stood out is the positive buzz from a special public screening Aamir hosted a week before the release. Several early viewers have shared emotional and enthusiastic reactions, praising the film for its message and heart. Viewers call it 'a learning for all' One viewer described the film as powerful and educational, saying, 'It's a learning for all — not only for special children, but for everyone. It's a great movie. I think it's going to be a great success. I'd give it a 4.9.' Another audience member appreciated the emotional depth, especially the protagonist's conversations with a character named Kartar. 'There's a very beautiful message. The last scene was especially touching — when he says that special people feel more than we do. I'd give it 4.5 out of 5.' One excited viewer said they plan to rewatch it, 'Benchmark was literally here, but it went up. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 5 Books Warren Buffett Wants You to Read In 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo It's a family movie, very entertaining.

Sitaare Zameen Par day 1 box office estimates Despite Aamir's star power, trade analysts and theatre owners believe the film's performance will heavily rely on word-of-mouth. Early estimates suggest that Sitaare Zameen Par may open between Rs 11 to Rs 15 crore on its first day, a healthy number that could grow with strong weekend traction. Story and Cast Sitare Zameen Par features Aamir Khan as a basketball coach mentoring ten differently-abled individuals, each portrayed by newcomers. The film focuses on their journey of growth, empowerment, and acceptance through sport. The cast includes Genelia Deshmukh and specially-abled debutants Aroush Datta, Gopi Krishna Varma, Samvit Desai, Vedant Sharma, Ayush Bhansali, Ashish Pendse, Rishi Shahani, Rishabh Jain, Naman Mishra, and Simran Mangeshkar. The film is an official remake of the 2018 Spanish hit Campeones, which was later adapted into the Hollywood film Champions, starring Woody Harrelson.

New Delhi [India], June 19 (ANI): The Korean Cultural Centre India presents the All India K-Pop Contest 2025, which began on May 14 and will culminate with the Grand Finale on July 19. In its 15th year, the contest has come up with much more excitement and surprises. This year's contest has seen an exciting new addition--a dedicated 'Rap' category--highlighting the evolution of the Indian K-Pop scene and encouraging participants to showcase how they interpret and perform K-Pop rap in their distinctive styles. With this expansion, there will be a total of three categories this year: Dance, Vocal and Rap, as per the press release. The competition is structured in three stages: Online, Regional and Grand Finale. The online round was held between May 14 and June 7, and it received a total of 1,278 team registrations from across the country, underlining the nationwide appeal of K-pop. After the first evaluation by regional judges from Korean culture fan communities, selected participants will move on to regional preliminaries held in June in 10 major cities. The Regional Round will kick off in Chennai on June 22 and will thereafter travel to Bengaluru, Kolkata, Itanagar, Bhopal, New Delhi, Mumbai, Ahmedabad, Kohima and Hyderabad, bringing the excitement of K-Pop to cities nationwide. These rounds will be organised independently by each local fan community, with support and oversight from the Korean Cultural Centre India. The selected winners of the three categories from the 10 cities will compete in the Grand Finale that will be held on July 19 in New Delhi, which will again unfold many surprises. The final event will also include a fan meeting event and special performances by K-pop idol groups invited from Korea. The winners in each category will receive cash prizes of Rs 2,00,000 for first place, Rs 1,00,000 for second, and Rs 50,000 for third. Moreover, the champions will be nominated to represent India at the prestigious 'K-Pop World Festival' in Changwon, South Korea, as per the press release. Hwang Il Yong, Director of Korean Cultural Centre India, said, 'This event, which has been held for the past 15 years under all circumstances, is a very meaningful festival for young people in India who love Korea and Korean culture. I would like to express my gratitude to the representatives of the Korean Culture Fan communities in 10 cities who have been of great help as the organisers of the regional preliminary rounds of the All India K-pop contests in recent years. It is touching to see young people in India empathising and communicating with each other through the unified culture of Korean music and K-pop, despite the large size of the country and the diverse languages and cultures in each region. I hope that Indian friends will participate and continue to create a place for empathy and communication through K-pop culture in India.' Oinam Surchandra, a candidate who will participate in the newly introduced rap category, said, 'I feel incredibly grateful to the Korean Cultural Centre India for giving upcoming rappers like us a platform to showcase our love for K-pop and rap. In a country where K-pop rap is still growing, this opportunity means the world. I genuinely hope that the rap category continues in future contests, as there are so many aspiring artists who dream of expressing themselves this way.' To offer a unique and enjoyable experience for K-culture fans in India, the Korean Cultural Centre India held a surprise K-pop Random Play Dance event on June 1 in New Delhi, in collaboration with the Korean Culture India Fan Club in Delhi. Around 400 fans gathered and danced to popular K-pop songs, creating a vibrant and energetic scene. Prerna Tiwari, president of the fan club, said, 'Having seen the Korean Wave grow in India for over a decade, the All India K-Pop Contest has become a source of pride for many fans. We are truly thankful to the Korean Cultural Centre India for making this experience possible,' as per the press release. (ANI)
