Viral Video: Canadian Woman Tastes Misal Pav, But Her Rating Is Not 10/10
Misal pav is a beloved food combination from Maharashtra. This spicy preparation has many fans across the country, and it is also making its way to menus at Indian restaurants abroad. Recently, a video showing a Canadian woman tasting misal pav for the first time took Instagram by storm. The reel shared by @veggmomo features someone off-camera explaining the dish and its various elements to her. She is instructed to combine the farsan with the "gravy" (known as the usal/rassa), and she uses up the entire bowl. Also Read: Italian Man Tries Maggi For The First Time, Watch His Reaction Next, she is told to squeeze lime juice on top, which she does. For the final step of assembling of the dish, she mixes chopped onions with the usal. Once it is ready, she eats a small morsel of the curry-farsan mixture with bread. Instead of scooping it directly, she uses a spoon to scoop it up and place it on a piece of bread. After her first taste of the misal pav, she says, "It's okay." She tastes it again and analyses its taste. She states, "It's good. I feel like it needs something sweet." When asked how much she would rate it out of 10, her verdict is 6.5. Her companion starts laughing. She says, "I'm still eating it. Don't take anything I say to heart." Watch the complete viral video below: View this post on Instagram A post shared by VEGG MOMO (@veggmomo) Also Read: Australian Vlogger's Funny Take On What Indians Would Do On Titanic Wins Approval Of Chai Lovers In the comments, several people felt that the way the misal pav was served or the way she ate it was not "correct." A few agreed with her that the dish is not necessarily something spectacular. Others vocally defended the combo, especially as it's made in different parts of Maharashtra. Read some of the reactions below. "It's 10 out of 10, anytime favourite dish." "Did she say 'It's ok!!!!???' Misal is never ok, it's always awesome. Just kidding, enjoy your misal guys." "That is not the right way of eating Misal pav." "She put a lot of farsan, that's why she didn't enjoy it properly." "You know when you have fake missal.... when the ussal is so There's no tari on ussal and the pav is toasted....." "Actually bread should be dipped in you will get the rest of the by spoon but by hand." "This dish is not my favourite reaction." "Love her subtle expressions while trying out every new delicacy. So genuine compared to the exaggerated reactions some people put on for the camera!" "Ask her to try kanda bhajji."

Saunkan Saunkanay 2 movie review: Ammy Virk faces triple trouble in this laugh-out-loud film
Saunkan Saunkanay 2 movie review: Punjabi cinema and comedy are a match made in blockbuster heaven and Ammy Virk's latest film, Saunkan Saunkanay 2, directed by Smeep Kang seems to be headed that way. The blockbuster success of Saunkan Saunkne (2022) precipitated this sequel, featuring the returning star cast of Nimrat Khaira, Sargun Mehta (in a double role) and Nirmal Rishi. Written by Amberdeep Singh, the film features the marital life of Nirmal Singh (Ammy Virk), which is complicated even further, as completely fed up with his existing two wives, he starts thinking of the possibility of a third! Saunkan Saunkanay 2 begins with a quick recap of events that unfolded in the previous film. Narrated by Nirmal Singh, as the hapless husband caught between two overbearing wives, the poor man tells of his plight as one driven to the brink of madness. Although both wives, Naseeb Kaur (Sargun Mehta) and Kiranjit Kaur (Nimrat Khaira) are sisters, they are at each other's throats all the time. They even drive their mother-in-law (Nirmal Rishi) up the wall, who is the mastermind behind getting a third wife for her son, in the hopes that he will finally find happiness. As she says, 'What's in a number?' But when Nirmal finds an Italian woman, Monica Belluci (Sargun Mehta in a double role) and brings her home, the two wives join forces to solve the 'international crisis'! The two try to lure their husband back and create hilarious situations to be nice to their husband for a change but all attempts sadly fall flat as Nirmal Singh will have none of it. Meanwhile, the entire village is comically wrapped up in this spectacle, especially as there is immense curiosity about the white woman in their midst. The comedy is pegged on several stereotypes, many of which are offensive and tone deaf but are employed within the realm of humour, all for the sake of a good laugh. The henfights between women, the obsession with land, the connivance between a mother who cannot see beyond her son's happiness, the desirability of thin women, devious women trying to take the impressionable husband for a merry ride, and so many more. These do become a bit tedious after a while, along with the high-pitch at which the comedy unfolds throughout. In Saunkan Saunkanay 2, women bicker, fight, curse, kick up a storm, manipulate, deceive but they just refuse to go down quietly. In fact, one of the most hilarious scenes is the one where Nirmal's mother narrates her falling in love with Nirmal's father and following her own heart, even unwittingly being the one responsible for the father's subsequent, untimely death. With crackling dialogues that mostly keep the momentum of the film chugging away at a good pace, the film starts dragging its feet in the second half and moves towards a predictable resolution. It also ends on a baffling note, perhaps in a hastily put together attempt to keep avenues open for another sequel. Also Read | Criminal Justice A Family Matter review: Surveen Chawla stands out as Pankaj Tripathi's show goes flat Overall though, Saunkan Saunkanay 2 is a laugh riot cemented by strong performances by the cast members. Ammy Virk, Sargun Mehta and Nimrat Khaira deliver noteworthy performances, while Khaira's dialogue delivery and comic timing is absolutely spot-on and deserve special mention. It's also nice to see the first ladies of Punjabi cinema— Gurpreet Bhangu, Seema Kaushal, Rupinder Rupi, being featured in a foot-tapping number, 'Gore Gore Mem'. The music compliments the entertainer with the songs 'Dieting', 'Mia Bella' and 'Main Nachdi'. This feel-good, crowd-pleaser is bound to become another box-office hit. Saunkan Saunkanay 2 movie cast: Sargun Mehta, Ammy Virk, Nimrat Khaira, Nirmal Rishi Saunkan Saunkanay 2 movie director: Smeep Kang Saunkan Saunkanay 2 movie rating: 4

Boston Bruins' Jeremy Swayman turns chef for girlfriend Alessandra's family pizza night
Jeremy Swayman (via Getty Images) Boston Bruins goalie Jeremy Swayman is accustomed to dealing with pressure in the goal—but this week, he replaced his goalie gloves with oven mitts in a different arena: the kitchen. Jeremy Swayman turned full-on pizzaiolo at a warm pizza night that his girlfriend Alessandra and her Italian-blood relatives threw. Alessandra showed followers a glimpse of what's behind the scenes through Instagram Stories, captioning a photo of the evening with a simple yet cheerful: 'Build your own [pizza emoji] night!' Boston Bruins' Jeremy Swayman makes pizza with girlfriend Alessandra's Italian family pizza night Boston Bruins goalie Jeremy Swayman might get points for speed on the ice, but off-ice, it's his charm that's melting hearts during the offseason. In a warm family gathering that fans saw on social media, Jeremy Swayman indulged in Italian tradition—dough, sauce, and all—during a 'build your own pizza' evening put on by his girlfriend Alessandra and her Italian family. While the All-Star goaltender is notorious for his cool under pressure, it appears as though he's equally focused on impressing the family—with mozzarella. No word on whether his pie made it to the top of the family leaderboard, but if his off-ice moves are anything like his saves, we're betting he served up something worth cheering for. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Promoções imperdíveis de voos baratos Voos | Anúncios de Pesquisa Saiba Mais Undo As the Bruins gear up for another season, it's clear Jeremy Swayman's off-season is off to a heartwarming—and delicious—start.
