Chef Chin in a Bollywood flick with Arshad Warsi?

Arshad Warsi caught up with chef, restaurateur, author and TV host of World Café, Bobby Chin, at the Kare Yoga & Ayurveda health Retreat’s detox centre near Pune.

Chin joked around with the actor that he wanted to debut in a Bollywood film and even said that he would love to do the hot scenes and cook Chinese food for Arshad in return. Arshad laughs, “I met Bobby at the retreat. I go there once in a year for 14 days to clean out my insides. He is a funny, sweet guy with a great sense of humour and we got along very well.

When we met he wasn’t very familiar with Bollywood and I told him that I was a big fan of his. Others at the retreat recognised me and then Bobby asked me who I was. That’s how the whole thing started and he said, ‘Take me in your film. I want to do movies.’ But I don’t think he is interested in doing a film.

It’s a lovely place where we eat vegetarian food, do yoga, and go for hiking on the mountain. I lost six kg there. Bobby and I felt like kids in a school as our yoga teacher would keep telling us, ‘Can you both stop talking?’
