Meals That Sparked A Movement

Meals That Sparked A Movement

Nana Ki Rasoi began on the streets, serving warm meals to those who often go unseen, such as daily-wage workers, petrol-pump staff, and others.

Those early drives showed us that hunger isn’t only about food, it’s about respect and connection.

Today, we’re building permanent, sit-down community kitchens — safe, welcoming spaces where anyone can eat, connect, and contribute what they can.

The Story Behind Nana Ki Rasoi

The Story Behind Nana Ki Rasoi

The Story Behind Nana Ki Rasoi

Nana Ki Rasoi is named after my grandfather, the one person who taught me that food is more than sustenance; it’s love, care, and community. His kitchen was always open. He had a way of giving more than anyone expected; making space for one more plate, one more story, one more person.

This initiative is my way of carrying that spirit forward, turning his everyday generosity into something that continues to nourish others, one meal at a time…
