Guys, see the difference. We had a cook.' 'He must be around 48. Great cook. First time in my life I was eating Mexican because I am a vegetarian. He made me some great, amazing Mexican platter for me, and after two days, Patra told me that this guy doesn't talk to me nicely. I think there is some issue. I could figure out,' recalled Rao. 'Third day, Patra asked him something. He made some face. With me, he'll talk with a lot of respect. You know what I did?

‘Bag pack kijiye aur chale jaiye': Why Rajkummar Rao fired their chef, a reason that proves he's an ideal husband
Rajkummar Rao and Patralekhaa are among the most loved couples of Bollywood. The couple was in a relationship for a very long time before eventually getting married in 2021.

He alerted the audience, stating, "I'll tell you an example from our house, and guys, see the difference.' He shared that they had a great cook who must have been 48. The actor emphasized the dilemma, highlighting that it was the first time he had gotten a chef who was cooking Mexican vegetarian food instead of some normal 'hari sabzi and rice.'

However, when his wife Patralekhaa informed him about their chef's disrespectful behavior towards him, the actor ended up firing him. He shared, "After two days, Patra told me, 'Listen, this guy doesn't talk to me nicely. I think there's some issue'. And I could figure out. On the third day, when Patra asked him something, he made some face. But with me, he'd talk with a lot of respect. You know what I did? I called him and said, 'Aapka bag pack kijiye aur na aap chale jaiye' (pack your bags and leave).' This story was met with a huge cheer and applause from the audience present in the room. Rajkummar Rao and Patralekhaa dated each other for over a decade and got married on November 15, 2021.
