Chef Vikas Khanna seems to be on a roll — making waves on international platforms over the past few months. Khanna, who'd grown up in Amritsar, and risen to fame as chef of the Michelin-starred NYC Junoon, had walked the red carpet at Cannes this year where his documentary 'Kitchens of Gratitude,' was being screened.

Now word comes in that Khanna will be in town next week to partner in a charity event with the man of the moment Virat Kohli. In his capacity as global ambassador for Smile, he will be hosting a charity dinner at a suburban five-star hotel.
