Bhumi Pednekar shared a picture of what seemed to be a steel thali with different sections filled with various foods. There was white jeera rice topped with coriander leaves and a dry spicy curry beside it. Another section had dal makhani with some cream. There was also a boondi raita garnished with coriander. Discussing the benefits of using this kind of a plate for her meals, Bhumi Pednekar wrote, “Sustainable, reusable, helps with portion control and hassle-free. The great Indian thali.” She further said that she had been eating in this Thali for many years due to the numerous benefits, and simply did not use any other way of eating food. “Been eating in 1 for years.
