The canteen has in the past prepared meals for Sanjay Dutt, who was arrested in the 1993 Mumbai serial blasts case, and Salman Khan, who was accused of running over pavement dwellers. “The canteen,” said Girish, is used to “catering to bade log (prominent people).”
“I also served food to Arun Gawli, the gangster. Salman bhai was the best — he would keep exercising to pass the time,” said Girish.
