While talking to HT.com, Siddharth said, "I have ordered two meals, one chicken and one paneer for my wife. We are expecting a baby, and the doctor has told us to avoid non-veg food for a couple of months; we ordered veg food for her, but instead of sending the same, they sent both non-veg thalis, which could have led to contamination as she is in her first trimester."
