I am
A hardcore non-vegetarian. I am allergic to chicken and eggs I cannot digest them so I eat either mutton or fish. I relish mutton and seafood.



I begin my day with
Lots of water followed byu00a0 tea in bed made by my mom.u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0
u00a0
My breakfast
Parathas almost everyday. Occasionally, I have fruits or dalia.u00a0
u00a0
My lunch is
If it's convenient for my mom then she packs home food for me or I eat the unit food. If I am ordering food, I prefer fish made in Continental style.u00a0

In the evenings
I eat a sandwich.u00a0

My dinner is
Simple homemade food.u00a0
u00a0
In sweets I like
Kheer, jalebi or rabri, brownies and cheese cakes.u00a0


I cook
Dal, roti, sabji the basic food.


My favourite cook
My mom, she makes perfect Punjabi khana.u00a0u00a0u00a0

My best dining friends
My family.

My idea of a romantic mealu00a0
The beach at night. The food should include sushi. Salmon sushi is my favourite. I am allergic to alcohol. Besides, I do not enjoy drinking. I would rather have Sprite with mint leaves.


Sunday lunch
Is usually at Olive. Theiru00a0 buffet is superb, especially their prawns.

I can't resist buying
Nothing. I buy things only if I need them. I don't like to spend money.

I resemble

A cool cucumber.

My fridge always has
Food. Because I live with my family and everyone's taste varies.

My comfort food
Any food as long as I am not cooking. I am a very lazy cook.u00a0u00a0
u00a0
Childhood memory of food
Is very embarrassing. I was the kind of a girl who wanted to eat everybody's food. Till today I cannot share my food with anyone. I feel so insecure when anyone looks at my food (laughs). After my younger sister was born, I learnt to share. If someone eats my halwa, the very thought that I will have to wait till it's made again is killing.u00a0

My fitness regime
Running, dancing, yoga, swimming and and playing volley ball. I normally spend two to two and half hours in the gym. I do one hour of cardio and an hour of exercises. I work out with a relaxed mind so I don't set time limits to finish my workouts. When I am at the gym I only concentrate on my workout.u00a0

During my stint in Khatron Ke Khiladiu00a0
I didn't experiment with my food because I was unsure about the oil they were using. I survived on lamb chops, sushi, salad, bread and butter. The lamb chops were superb.u00a0

I am not at all calorie conscious
Because I work out a lot. I eat everything from bhujiyas to samosas to pakodas.u00a0u00a0

My favourite...
Foods:
Sushi and lamb chops
Spice: Clove and mint.
Kitchen appliance: Microwave.u00a0
Beverage: Fresh fruit juice.

Favourite resturaunt

Spices, JW Marriott
Juhu Tara Road

Urvashi says, "Basilico and Olive. I like Spices, J W Marriott. I don't like to travel a distance just to eat."

Spices at JW Marriott serves Asian-Fusion cuisine which includes Thai, Japanese and Chinese dishes.

Throughout the week the restaurant is open only for dinner but on Sundays, they serve an elaborate brunch. When there, dig into their Seebas with Ginger Lemon Sauce, a hot favourite. Also try out their Roasted Duck in Red Curry and Crispy Souse Crepe with Thai herbs' salad. For dessert, choose between yummy treats like Steamed Custard Buns, Lemon Grass and Chocolate Mousse.u00a0

The ambience is cozy and chic. No wonder then that the place counts Salman Khan, Katrina Kaif, Bipasha Basu and John Abraham amongst its regular diners.
