Salman Khan's Cheeky FDA Warning to Friend's Cafe
4 Sep
Summary
- Salman Khan playfully warned a friend's new cafe to maintain quality.
- The actor jokingly referenced the Maharashtra FDA Commissioner.
- The warning comes amid intensified food safety inspections across the state.
Actor Salman Khan issued a lighthearted warning to a friend's newly opened cafe in Bandra. Khan took to his Instagram Story to reshare a video from The Tuck Shop at Savio's, playfully urging the establishment to keep prices consistent and quality and hygiene standards high. His message included a veiled reference to Maharashtra FDA Commissioner Tukaram Mundhe, known for his intensified food-safety enforcement.
Mundhe assumed his role as FDA Commissioner on May 26, 2026, and since then, his department has reportedly conducted over 3,000 inspections. Approximately 165 food establishments have had their licenses suspended due to violations concerning hygiene, adulteration, and licensing issues.
The FDA's rigorous approach has earned Mundhe the social media moniker "real-life Singham." He has emphasized the importance of healthy food and medicine for a healthy nation. Khan's jest about sending "HIM" if standards aren't met reflects the current climate of heightened scrutiny on food businesses in Maharashtra.
Meanwhile, Salman Khan is preparing to host 'Bigg Boss 20,' set to premiere on September 6, 2026. He is also slated to appear in 'Maatrubhumi: May War Rest in Peace' and Vamshi Paidipally's 'Monster,' with the latter scheduled for an Eid 2027 release.
