During all this time at home, there were many who discovered their talent of cooking. However, there were also those, who despite being forced to cook for themselves, missed out on the chance to hone their culinary skills. This may be because of a more chalta hai attitude kyunki bhookh hi toh mitani hain. If you relate to them, then there’s a chance that this video by comedian Abhishek Upmanyu will feel too close to home.
