The video depicts Mayo Japan and Suzuki doing the hook steps from the Jailer movie song Kaavaalaa. Before walking farther into the market, all of them sampled some delicious aloo tikki from a local vendor.
Suzuki even took the time to try on different kurtas, eventually purchasing one that he adored. He liked it so much that he wore it for the rest of the video. The trio finished their culinary journey with freshly steamed veggies, chicken momos, and ram laddus.
The post has received a lot of engagement on YouTube with over 48,000+ views in a day. It has also received a large number of likes and comments.
It is to be recalled that earlier in the month of June, Hiroshi Suzuki had been to Pune, Maharashtra with his wife where he was seen having spicy Misal Pav, Vada Pav, and other local cuisines.
Also, on a visit to India in March, Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida tasted various Indian delicacies, including ‘gol-gappe,’ ‘aam panna,’ and ‘lassi,’ during a visit to the Buddha Jayanti Park in Delhi with Modi.
