Shilpa Shetty has hit back at scepticism surrounding her new ready meal venture, insisting that it is destined to be a success.
The Bollywood actress has reportedly been taking advice from British chef Andy Varma after signing a deal to sell various Indian dishes in the UK.Speaking to Galatta, Shetty explained:
"Everyone presumed I was a big novice at cuisine. Not true. I've always enjoyed cooking. And I love cooking for my friends and family.
"Now with Raj [Kundra] and me becoming part of Andy Varma's chain, my interest in cooking has turned into a passion."
She continued: "You'd be surprised to know how popular Indian food is in England. Do you know the country's favourite dish is chicken tikka masala?
