Running a restaurant guarantees long hours and stress. Trupti love for old hindi movie songs helps her through the day. Kishore Kumar is a favourite. And the songs from the old film Khamoshi are a favourite.
Her choices in films are quite eclectic. By choice she prefers Bollywood fare but marriage has brought a man who loves aircrafts into her life. Recently she watched a Russian movie dubbed into English about people stuck at an airport after a dormant volcano erupted. Riveting stuff, she said it was. Movies around flying are favourites in that household.
Her choice in reading is dictated by her love for the wild. She reads fiction and was recently at a jungle camp in Jawai. The jungle usually is the place to find her when she is on vacation. She intends to visit the Sunderbans to explore the mangroves. Her interest was piqued by the fact that she was born in Mysore and was surrounded by jungles.
Trupti loves eating meat curries from different regions which is not surprising when you consider that red meat is popular in Mysore. She also loves her dimsums and momos. Goodfellas in Goa and Hauz Khaus for Himalayan cuisine is her favourite.
The family takes holidays twice a year and the last one was at the Jim Corbett Park in Uttarakhand. Now however with the restaurant, it will not be as frequent. She enjoys singing, reading and embroidery in her spare time. In the next five years she would like to open a school for the girl child which the family is planning back home in Mysore.
