I actually had kept a fast for my temple visit in Dwarka wherein I had given up eating chicken completely. I just completed that and the bird flu news came out. I have given up on chicken due to the disease and also not allowing anyone at home to eat it.
Favourite chicken dish: Grilled chicken.

I am going on a veg diet for the next 10 days. In fact all the dabbas on the Jassi set have been ordered to go veg. Everyone has been strictly instructed not to have any chicken for the next one month. I cannot bear to digest the fact that I will have to do away with my favourite food for a long time.
Favourite chicken dish: Tandoori chicken.

Nausheen Ali Sardar
Considering that it is happening in Maharashtra; I have taken all the necessary care.

Whatever chicken we had in the fridge has been chucked away. Last time when the bird flu was prevalent in the Far East, I had stopped eating chicken for quite a while, too.
Favourite chicken dish: Chicken tikka is what I simply dig.

Chetan Hansraj
I am a huge lover of chicken food. It's really sad that I have to give it up for the time being and turn vegetarian.
Favourite chicken dish: Butter chicken.

This entire hullabaloo over bird flu is overly hyped. But in any case it's always better to be safe. I have been advising my girlfriend and all other friends to give up on chicken and eggs. A lot of them have been complaining but one must realise that you are not going to die if you don't have chicken. But everybody is quite conscious about it and the caterers on our sets have started serving fish instead.
Favourite chicken dish: I only thrive on eggs and not on meat.

Chicken on dost

Yes, I have heard about the bird flu, but I haven't stopped eating chicken; and I won't. I love eating non-veg food. I am taking all the necessary precautions like overcooking the meat and cooking it till 70 degrees F as the doctors are advising. And as long as you don't handle the diseased chicken you will be okay.
Favourite chicken dish: Chicken tandoori.

The bird flu is a viral infection caused by the excreta of the birds and it is quite lethal (this is the doc in him speaking!) One needs to take necessary precautions. I ate whatever chicken was in the house but I have asked the domestic helps not to buy eggs and chicken for some days. At present I am avoiding it absolutely — at least till the problem is over.
Favourite chicken dish: Chicken biryani and butter chicken are my favourites. Delhi Darbar (the one in town) serves the best.

Chicken sibling

Ekta Kapoor
I have heard about the bird flu but I eat only chicken. I love chicken and I won't give it up! I have heard that is you cook it properly then the disease won't get transmitted to you. So once the chicken is booked and cooked I am hooked.
Favourite chicken dish: I love chicken schezwan, chicken biryani, chicken curry — anything that has chicken in it.

Tusshar Kapoor
We have stopped eating chicken at home completely for the last three days. It's very difficult for me as I eat only chicken as it's light and tasty. My mom has been taking the necessary precautions at home. I am having eggs but don't know for how long? It's not a man-to-man transmitted disease as far as I have heard.
Favourite chicken dish: My favourite is chicken tandoori.

Thx for the article Dures..sounds lyk the bird flu is being hyped but it does not hurt to be cautious! 😳 Eijoo is sensible tho..i'm sure he'd turn veg. for a while! 😃
Kitty, i think Singapore knew more abt it..the West rarely gets news leaked abt potential epidemics until it is abso. necessary! 😕
