Also, I really didn't get what the problem was with Romil asking for something different to eat. I vouch for a good home cooked meal but even I have days when I don't feel like eating the usual dal, chawal, roti, sabji.
Sometimes I just want some chocolate or ice cream. Other times I crave something really spicy like mirchi vada or a good spicy vada pav. On rainy days I swear by pakodas and kadak adrakwali chai. And on some days I really want to eat a cheesy pizza or a big burger or chowmein. That doesn't mean I don't like Indian food or home cooked meals in general.
The scene felt abrupt to me. Matlab bas ek baar pancake maang liya toh MAA ne pura lecture hi de diya. When really the truth is you can have different taste on some days or in Romil's case maybe be used to a different cuisine and just take time to adjust when you go to a new place.
Did MAA ever consider that maybe Romil didn't like the way she had made said dal, sabji roti? Every house in India has their own spin to the recipes. Maybe Romil didn't like the way she made them?(MAA Bhakts will cry she is Annapurna but let's be practical, it can happen that you don't like the way someone makes a certain dish since taste is subjective)
There is no scientific or logical sense in saying Indian food is so wholesome, good health can be maintained only if you eat Indian food or that only dal, chawal, roti, sabji have to be eaten 24X7, 365 days as MAA seemed to be implying with her lecture.
I felt like telling Anupama to chill out and give the poor child who has just moved into her circus of a house a break.
