Get to know... Mohit Hiranandani
Currently, I am: Feeling great. I just hosted a panel at Amazon Beautyverse 2025. Mohit Hiranandani doesn't leave the house without his car keys, house keys, and extra perfume. High point in life: Right now, this is my high point! It changes every day. There should be a high point every day in your life. That's when you know it's worth living. Low point in life: Considering the mishaps and wars around the world, I can't say I've experienced any great suffering. I just hope it gets better for all of us. On my playlist: I'm listening to Sidhu Moose Wala's Paapi on loop. I love Raj Shamani's podcast. And sometimes, I watch 'The Having Said That' show. On my speed dial: My wife, Steffi. Today I'm craving: That chicken katsu curry bowl I'm seeing so many people eating online. My next big splurge: Probably some new shades. And if I'm feeling extra adventurous, then maybe some stocks. Last thing I ordered online: A Lacoste shirt, from Amazon. App I check before bed: Instagram. Advice I'd give my 18-year-old self: I'd tell him to take it easy. That he's going to have a great life find a beautiful wife who understands him. And that he should be thankful there is so much he doesn't have to worry about. My secret skill: I can deliver an answer on the spot without going blank. And I sound fantastic. A superpower/magic tool I wish I had: I'd love to teleport, become invisible, or shape-shift. My favourite Sunday memory while growing up: Spending time with my dad. We had a set routine; we'd pick up breakfast and then get take-away orders for my sister and mum, who'd prefer to stay home. And I'd help him fix the stereo, or the car, or whatever needed fixing that day. My most star-struck moment so far: Meeting Abhishek Bachchan. He's so charismatic and fun. My favourite bad habit: I smoke and drink sometimes. Then, I take a month off to detox. If I could travel back/forward in time, I'd... Stay in the present. I'm too scared to see the future, and I've already lived my past. A trait I despise in people: I can't set boundaries. So, I don't like how easily it comes to others. I won't leave the house without: Car keys, house keys, and extra perfume. The best thing about fame: Getting to do what I love, getting interviewed... it's the best. The worst thing about fame: People who are famous cannot be their normal selves. Because they're judged for it. From HT Brunch, Aug 16, 2025 Follow us on

"Grow Up, Eat Meat": Stand Up Comedian Says Vegans Need "Professional Help"
New Delhi: Stand-up comedian Saniya Mirwani has said that she pities vegans, adding they need professional help. On an episode of 'The Having Said That' podcast, she said that when she went out with her vegetarian friends, she suggested "they grow up" and "just eat meat." "I just think you can't be a fully grown adult being by (saying) Give me Paneer," she said. Then, speaking about vegans, Ms Mirwani said they were "too far gone." "We can't help them. And I don't like to make fun of vegans because I truly believe, like, they need professional help. And you don't make fun of people who need professional help. So it's all right, it's all gonna be okay," she added. She then mocked vegetarians, calling them "virgins". Ms Mirwani also revealed that she would sneak non-vegetarian food, give it to her vegetarian schoolmates and call it "God's work". She mentioned, "I used to sneak in like chicken nuggets, things like that, into school and give them to my vegetarian friends and help them." The clip quickly went viral, but the views didn't go down well with many, who chastised her and called it offensive. "Her unpopular opinion really is very problematic. Especially her take on vegetarianism and food intolerance. Half-baked knowledge and misplaced confidence," read a comment. "This episode is the podcast version of 'leave your brain at home' kinda content!" read another. "Such a childish argument about vegetarians and vegans. It's a choice, shaming someone on their choice is so stupid calling them virgin and shit is too much," said another person. "This is why proper education is important about diet cause people like her come n talk shit in front just to look cool," wrote the next. During the podcast, Ms Mirwani also described PETA advertisements as "insane" and "ghastly," saying such aggressive behaviour only made people want to eat more meat out of defiance.
