Mira Rajput Kapoor indulged in an ‘Ask Me Anything’ session, where she was asked about her favourite Indian dish. Her long list included a dish made by her father-in-law, Pankaj Kapur.
Not only most of us wish to spend a minute with our favourite celebs but also a like, comment or follow back from them on social media makes our day. While we see them in their picture-perfect personalities on-screen, it is so much more to their lives on the personal front. For the sneak-peeks of their personal lives for their fans, social media acts like a bridge between a celeb and a fan. Not only do they delight fans with pictures and videos of glimpses of their personal life, but once in a while some of them interacts with their followers on social media platforms via an AMA session. Just like Shahid Kapoor, his wife, Mira Rajput Kapoor too, indulges in an ‘Ask Me Anything’ session in every few months and answers the questions of her followers.

When a fan asked her, “What was it like meeting Shahid for the first time? Considering he is a star”, Mira had replied, “Just like meeting anyone for the first time. Interesting. It was actually when I was 16 and we were at a common family friends house for a concert by a sufi singer. Both our dad’s love that kind of music.”

When a fan had asked Mira, “What’s your favourite Indian food?” she had replied, “Dal Makhani, Paneer Makhani, Baigan Bharta, Soya Chaap, Gheeya/tori in any form, my mom’s kashiphal, Mom’s parantha, Gujrati Kadhi, Appam and Stew, Spicy Rasam, Poha, My FIL’s Orange Paneer. Anything really… I live to eat.”
