While Jamie's Italian would open in Ambience Mall in the capital's Vasant Kunj area, Jamie's Pizzeria would open in Ambience Mall in capital suburb Gurgaon.

"I can't tell you how excited I am to be bringing Jamie's Italian and Jamie's Pizzeria to India. Delhi is a vibrant, colourful, buzzing city with an already incredible food scene, so to be opening two restaurants there is a huge honour," Oliver said in a statement.

"Right now we're recruiting for two brilliant new teams who will become part of our ever-growing family. When we open the doors of both restaurants, they'll be serving up some really beautiful, simple, great-value Italian food, all made with the very best-quality ingredients we can get our hands on," added the British chef.

The restaurants would open in the next couple of months.

Explaining the approach to his restaurants, Oliver said: "Since I was a teenager, I've been totally besotted by the love, passion and verve for food, family and life itself that just about all the Italian people have, no matter where they're from or how rich or poor they may be. And that's what I'm passionate about - good food for everyone, no matter what."
