10 international desserts that look so Indian!
1 2 Some desserts from around the world look so much like Indian classics, you'd think they came straight from a familiar sweet shop. Fluffy layers, golden syrup, thickened milk, rose and cardamom hints make it seem like global sweets have been taking inspiration from Indian mithai for a long time. Whether it's a flaky pastry that brings to mind a gujiya or a chilled pudding that reminds you of phirni, these treats travel across countries while holding on to a desi charm. These lookalikes don't just match Indian sweets in appearance — they share textures, ingredients, and even how they're enjoyed. Some are steamed, some are fried, and most carry that warm, celebratory feeling. The highlight is that each one brings a unique twist while still tasting close to home. Here is a list of international desserts that could easily be mistaken for Indian favourites at first glance or first bite. Baklava (Turkey) With its flaky layers, chopped nuts, and sticky sweetness, baklava feels like it could be related to soan papdi or gujiya. The mix of rich buttery flavour and sugar syrup gives it an instantly familiar taste. It's one of those desserts that feels both new and nostalgic at the same time. Basbousa (Middle East) This soft, grainy cake made with semolina and soaked in syrup feels just like a syrupy rava cake. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch CFD với công nghệ và tốc độ tốt hơn IC Markets Đăng ký Undo It's often topped with almonds and has a subtle coconut note, like a fusion between a barfi and halwa. Kanafeh (Levant) Made with shredded pastry, melted cheese, and rose-scented syrup, kanafeh looks like a luxurious twist on Indian sweets like chena toast or malai sandwich. The contrast of textures is pure magic. Tres Leches (Latin America) This milk-soaked sponge cake gives strong rasmalai energy. Soft and soaked in sweet milk, it's a rich, creamy experience that's surprisingly similar to Indian milk-based desserts. Loukoumades (Greece) These little deep-fried dough balls dipped in honey and sprinkled with cinnamon could easily be mistaken for mini gulab jamuns. They're light, airy, and just as addictive. Mochi (Japan) Soft, chewy, and filled with red bean or custard, mochi looks a lot like modaks or stuffed rice dumplings. Their minimal sweetness and smooth texture give them a very familiar festive feel. Malabi (Israel) This milk pudding topped with rose water and crushed nuts feels a lot like phirni. Served cold and gently flavoured, it ticks all the Indian dessert boxes. Crème Caramel (France) This wobbly custard with a caramel top looks like a firni-flan hybrid. Its silky texture and milky richness make it feel like something straight out of an Indian thali. Churros (Spain) Long, fried dough sticks rolled in sugar feel a lot like shakkarpara or balushahi in a different form. Add a dipping sauce and it becomes a great tea-time treat. Dondurma (Turkey) This stretchy, chewy ice cream made with mastic and salep has the cool creamy charm of kulfi. It is dense, rich and takes time to melt making each bite feel just right.

Sonali Bendre agreed to receive Michael Jackson at airport with Raj Thackeray in 1996 on this condition
Sonali Bendre is the only Bollywood actor to have had the opportunity to welcome the late pop sensation Michael Jackson when he visited India for his HIStory World Tour in 1996. Sonali, along with politician Raj Thackeray, played a key role in the grand welcome of Michael Jackson to India in 1996. (Also Read: Salman Khan makes it difficult to like him: Sonali Bendre shares how he made her angry during Hum Saath Saath Hain shoot) Sonali was dressed in a traditional nine-yard saree and greeted Michael at the Mumbai airport with an Indian ritual by applying tilak (a sacred mark on the forehead) and performing aarti. Now, nearly 29 years later, Sonali has opened up about the behind-the-scenes events that led her to be a part of that iconic moment. In an interview with ANI, the Sarfarosh actor said that she was approached by Raj Thackeray's wife, Sharmila Thackeray, for the welcoming ceremony of Michael Jackson at the Mumbai Airport (Bombay Airport at that time). "They told me that you need to come and do that and be somebody who got in touch with me. I think it was Sharmila, Raj's wife. Sharmila's mother and my masi (aunt) have been friends for a long time, and she said, 'why don't you do it' (welcoming Michael Jackson)," said Sonali. However, it was not easy to convince the actor, who was at the peak of her career at the time. She agreed to receive Michael at the airport, but only on one condition. "I was like, okay, but then I want great tickets for the show and all of that with my friends. So I did it because I was getting these tickets to enter where I could take my friends and go to the show. My sister, sister's friends and all of that. We had this great seating. That's what I was so excited about when I did it," added Sonali. The HIStory World Tour included Michael visiting numerous countries and performing for millions of fans. Michael's concert in Mumbai was a highlight of the tour, as it is fondly remembered for his cultural moment in India. In the same interview, Sonali also criticised gossip surrounding her and Raj Thackeray at that time and said, 'I don't know. I mean, a lot of people... I think it's just not in very good taste when people talk about it like that. First of all, I mean, there are families involved and people involved in all of that.'

Without imposition, we will learn: Kamal Haasan on issue of imposition of language
Where does Kamal Haasan stand on the issue of imposition of Hindi in the south? "I stand with Punjab. I stand with Karnataka. I stand with Andhra," is his quick reply. The pan-India superstar's latest film "Thug Life", the 234th in a 65-year career, released in theatres this week amid controversy over his comment that Kannada was born out of Tamil. He refused to apologise and the film did not release in Karnataka. "I am the actor from 'Ek Duuje Ke Liye'...," Haasan told PTI during a recent visit to the news agency's headquarters, referring to his 1981 hit Hindi film about a Tamil boy and his romance with his Hindi speaking neighbour. "Without imposition, we will learn. Don't impose, because this is ultimately education and we must take the shortest route to education... and not put hurdles in its way," the actor said. The ruling DMK in his home state Tamil Nadu has long opposed the three-language policy introduced under the National Education Policy (NEP). The party has repeatedly accused the BJP-led NDA government of attempting to "impose Hindi", a charge the Centre has denied. Stressing that the imposition of a particular language only hampers the learning process, the 70-year-old said, "I stand with Punjab. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Discover Effortless Glucose Monitoring: Request a Free Trial Dexcom Try Now Undo I stand with Karnataka. I stand with Andhra. This is not only place which is resenting imposition." The Indian cinema stalwart, hugely popular in the south as well as in the north with films such as "Nayakan", "Thevar Magan", "Sadma", "Saagar" and Chachi 420" that bridged language divides, said if you are truly looking at "international breakthrough" you must learn one language. "And English seems to be fair enough. You can do Spanish also, or Chinese. But I think the most practical thing where the shortest route to that is that we have 350 years of English education, slowly but steadily. So when you suddenly replace it, it's all over again. You make unnecessarily many people illiterate, especially in Tamil Nadu. "You suddenly force all through Hindi and you tell them that you will not get your job beyond the Vindhyas, then you start wondering, what about the promises? What about my language? Am I not one of the 22 (official languages)? These are the questions that are coming." Tamil is one of the 22 official languages of the country, apart from Assamese, Bengali, Gujarati, Hindi, Kannada, Kashmiri, Konkani, Malayalam, Manipuri, Marathi, Nepali, Oriya, Punjabi, Sanskrit, Sindhi, Telugu, Urdu, Bodo, Santhali, Maithili and Dogri. The Karnataka Film Chamber of Commerce (KFCC) had said it would not let "Thug Life" release unless Haasan apologised for his Kannada-Tamil comment at a promotional event in Chennai. His banner Raajkamal Films International filed a plea before the Karnataka High Court seeking protection for the release of the film, which sees him reuniting with Mani Ratnam after "Nayakan" in 1987. After a rap from the court over the remark, the producers said "Thug Life" will not be released in Karnataka.
