But the prices for tomatoes are skyrocketing these days and that has affected his kitchen as well. He eats fewer tomatoes lately. While people may think that he’s a superstar and all these things wouldn’t affect him, that’s not true. Even actors or stars have to deal with such things, said Suniel.
He further added that since he’s also a restaurateur, he’s always bargained for vegetables and tried to get them at the best prices. But he has recently discovered that the prices of veggies is cheaper on the apps than the shops and markets. Hence, he shops from the apps and not just because it’s cheaper but also because they sell fresh produce.
