Pooja Dhingra
Celebrity chef Pooja Dhingra's latest book, The Wholesome Kitchen, (Hachette India) appears to be quite a departure from the decadent ways she's known for. Dabbling in healthy cooking and eating, for a pastry chef especially, is a job easier said than done. For Dhingra, the journey began two years ago, when she was preparing to run the half marathon in Mumbai. "Training for the half marathon meant I had to change my diet, but then, I also needed to meet my sweet cravings," says Dhingra.

It was around the same time, that she started developing a line of healthy treats with the help of her sister-in-law Viddhi (Dhingra) that eventually culminated into Jump, a line of healthy desserts. "We started handing out recipes to our friends, and when the feedback was encouraging, it was a sign to go ahead with this book, which is all about wholesome and tasty eats."
Among the 20 recipe contributors, are some of Bollywood's best known celebrities, known to have tackled their own weight problems with panache. So, if you want to know how Shraddha Kapoor likes her red velvet brownies or why Rahul Khanna looks as young as he does, this is where you look.
