00:00:00
let's start off by talking about
00:00:02
celebrities who is your favorite
00:00:04
celebrity my favorite is an actor called
00:00:06
shuk Khan he works in the Hindi film
00:00:09
industry he's been making movies since I
00:00:12
was 3 years old and I am slightly
00:00:15
obsessed with him would you like to be a
00:00:17
celebrity um it would depend I'm
00:00:21
somebody that likes my privacy and
00:00:24
anonymity quite a bit so I wouldn't want
00:00:28
to be so famous that I wasn't able to do
00:00:33
the things that I like to do normal
00:00:34
everyday things but I would like to be
00:00:39
so good in my field that I built a
00:00:42
reputation for myself are there any
00:00:44
celebrities that you do not like there's
00:00:47
quite a
00:00:48
few can I say Donald Trump I mean there
00:00:51
are certain things about him that I can
00:00:53
respect but
00:00:55
overall I'm I would not find him
00:00:59
likeable
00:01:00
in any way he's a bad representation I
00:01:03
guess for Americans or uh worst
00:01:06
president I think American president now
00:01:08
let's talk about fashion mhm what is
00:01:11
your favorite item of clothing
00:01:15
um jeans I'm a jeans uh lightw wash or
00:01:20
mid to light wash denim jeans kind of
00:01:24
girl um it's very it's something that
00:01:27
you can wear in the day it's something
00:01:29
you can wear at night it can be Chic it
00:01:32
can be casual it's um you don't have to
00:01:35
think about it it's just easy are there
00:01:37
any traditional clothes in your country
00:01:41
yes India India is I mean I maybe biased
00:01:46
when I say this but I think we have the
00:01:47
best traditional clothing I mean my
00:01:50
favorite thing that the women wear is
00:01:52
this piece of garment called Assad which
00:01:55
is uh I think it's 5 m long it's a it's
00:01:59
a piece of fabric that you drape around
00:02:01
yourself and then over your shoulder and
00:02:04
I think it's so beautiful and elegant
00:02:08
and classy I may be biased like I said
00:02:11
but I think it's the most stunning
00:02:14
outfit a woman can wear do you ever buy
00:02:17
clothes online all the time I I it's
00:02:21
very rare that I purchase something in
00:02:23
store I mean for the last maybe 5 years
00:02:26
I buy everything online now let's talk
00:02:28
about colors what colors do you like H
00:02:32
I'm quite a bright again maybe because
00:02:34
I'm Indian I I gravitate
00:02:36
to uh almost every color red Blues
00:02:41
greens purples pinks white I mean other
00:02:44
than black I'm unless it's a car cars
00:02:47
look great and black but other than that
00:02:49
I would say every color of the rainbow I
00:02:52
like what's the most popular color in
00:02:54
your country that's tough what's the
00:02:57
most popular color I guess it depends on
00:03:00
the season if it's if we or like it
00:03:02
depends on the event if we're talking
00:03:04
about
00:03:05
weddings it's usually red um if we talk
00:03:10
about I mean a Hindu wedding is usually
00:03:12
readed if it's a Christian wedding then
00:03:15
it's usually whites and blacks um if
00:03:18
it's oh my God it's every color we we
00:03:21
try to wear as many colors as we can
00:03:23
saffron oranges Blues greens it depends
00:03:27
on the occasion it depends on I wouldn't
00:03:29
say there's one color that is supreme
00:03:32
amongst the others do colors affect your
00:03:34
mood I think so I think they do I I
00:03:38
guess when I'm feeling gloomy and I put
00:03:42
on a dark color perhaps subconsciously
00:03:45
to reflect my internal
00:03:47
gloominess um it makes me feel probably
00:03:51
more gloomy but if I force myself to
00:03:53
wear something bright when I'm not
00:03:54
feeling so good um I think I'm able to
00:03:58
absorb some of the energy off that color
00:04:01
and feel perhaps a little better food
00:04:04
that I learned to prepare um I'm
00:04:08
pescatarian so I don't eat meat um but I
00:04:11
love food and I have a gluten
00:04:13
intolerance so I can't eat a lot of the
00:04:15
Indian food so this is a little recipe
00:04:18
that I learned how to make which is
00:04:20
basically paner um we call it cottage
00:04:23
cheese in English um it's like a it's
00:04:27
like a spiced tomato base with cottage
00:04:31
cheese um
00:04:34
with parata Roti but it's made out of
00:04:37
ragi flour which is gluten-free and
00:04:41
super rich in calcium and very good for
00:04:44
people with diabetes although I don't
00:04:46
have diabetes it's very nutritious
00:04:48
basically together it's the perfect meal
00:04:50
it keeps you full I I love being healthy
00:04:52
I try to be as healthy as I can so um
00:04:57
yeah that's probably my go-to meal in
00:05:00
the evening cuz I don't have to think
00:05:01
about I have all the ingredients I don't
00:05:04
have to think about how to make it it's
00:05:05
kind of automatic and it's delicious
00:05:08
which is the most important part it's
00:05:09
not compromising on The Taste because I
00:05:12
can't eat salmon and rice every day I
00:05:16
want to eat something that's more um
00:05:19
flavorful and uh nutritious sometimes
00:05:22
when I'm feeling adventurous I like to
00:05:24
eat it with uh yogurt either Greek
00:05:27
yogurt or regular yogurt
00:05:30
and add a couple Indian spices into it
00:05:32
and mix it up so the spiciness of the
00:05:36
pan cottage cheese um the the texture
00:05:41
like a drier stiffer texture of the ragi
00:05:45
Roy and the creaminess and coldness of
00:05:49
the yogurt is match made in heaven so
00:05:53
we've been talking about a dish that you
00:05:56
like to prepare we're going to continue
00:05:58
to talk about cooking and young people
00:06:01
and cooking what kind of things can
00:06:03
children learn to
00:06:04
cook H to thank you for watching this

00:06:29
link in the description thanks very much
00:06:31
and let's get back to the video I'm
00:06:33
trying to think about what's safe with
00:06:36
the parents there obviously we're
00:06:38
assuming so if a child's going to be
00:06:39
around the stove or an oven let's say
00:06:43
the parents are there I think baking is
00:06:45
very fun um especially little things
00:06:48
like cookies that you can make shapes
00:06:50
out
00:06:50
of um it's like a fun activity for
00:06:54
parents and children to do
00:06:56
together baking is good on the stove too
00:06:59
but I think that requires a little bit
00:07:01
more Precision so kids should bake like
00:07:05
Christmas cookies probably do you think
00:07:07
it's important for children to learn how
00:07:09
to cook
00:07:11
absolutely um it's a survival skill in
00:07:15
my opinion I personally think that you
00:07:18
shouldn't treat it like a chore or treat
00:07:20
it like something that you were forced
00:07:22
to do because you have to do it forever
00:07:26
you don't know where you're going to be
00:07:28
or what kind of situation
00:07:30
even if you are surrounded by people
00:07:31
that are good cooks and you perhaps
00:07:33
don't feel like you need to cook
00:07:35
yourself It's always important to teach
00:07:39
children from a young age to be able to
00:07:41
kind of put a meal together because it's
00:07:44
basic it's survival now let's talk about
00:07:47
working as a chef mhm what skills does a
00:07:50
person need to be a great
00:07:53
chef interesting I think I mean from
00:07:57
what I've heard I've never worked as a
00:07:58
chef or worked in a kitchen before but I
00:08:01
think it takes a lot of trial and error
00:08:04
so for that reason I would imagine that
00:08:06
the person would have to be very patient
00:08:08
and with that patience you need to have
00:08:11
an inherent uh passion for the food that
00:08:14
you're making I think chefs usually
00:08:16
specialize in in one or more
00:08:19
Cuisines um so just having an
00:08:22
understanding of the background of the
00:08:23
spices where it comes from of the meat
00:08:25
where it comes from if you're not
00:08:27
passionate about that it can probably
00:08:31
Tire you out to be that invested in
00:08:34
learning to patience passion and a good
00:08:38
environment like access to good teachers
00:08:42
access to good books access to good
00:08:45
produce would probably help you horn
00:08:47
your craft a lot more how enjoyable do
00:08:50
you think it would be to work as a
00:08:53
professional chef H I think that would
00:08:57
be completely dependent on on the
00:08:59
environment that you're in I imagine it
00:09:01
would be a very stressful job if you
00:09:03
worked in a Michelin star restaurant for
00:09:06
instance um but then if you had a food
00:09:10
truck and you sold tacos and you had a
00:09:13
bunch of happy children and happy
00:09:15
families coming around I guess the
00:09:17
environment would be completely
00:09:19
different
00:09:21
um I again I would say it wouldn't be
00:09:24
the same across the board it would
00:09:26
depend on where you worked what kind of
00:09:28
restaurant uh how many people come there
00:09:31
what kind of food do you make on a daily
00:09:33
basis what kind of preparation so I
00:09:34
think it would be different for
00:09:36
everybody that's the end of the speaking
00:09:38
test well done thank you
