A nostalgic food moment from a recent podcast featuring Mrunal Thakur and Ranveer Allahbadia has taken the internet by storm, putting the spotlight back on one of Mumbai’s most beloved snack joints. A candid conversation about samosas quickly turned into a viral clip, with Ranveer passionately recommending what he called “the best samosas in India.”
During the chat, Ranveer asked Mrunal if she had ever tried the iconic A1 Samosas from Sion. When she said no, he couldn’t hold back his enthusiasm, saying, “A1 Samosas are the best in India, not just Mumbai. It’s in Sion, served at a place called Guru Kripa.” His statement instantly sparked curiosity among viewers and food lovers alike.
As the conversation continued, Ranveer added that many samosas served in Mumbai theatres are sourced from this very spot. This revelation struck a chord with Mrunal, who quickly connected the dots and responded, “Oh, the best! I eat samosas in theatres only."
