This Bahubali Pani Puri in Nagpur, Maharashtra, has sparked the curiosity of Chaat enthusiasts, and we’re confident you’ll be as well. Take a look at the following:
The video of Bahubali Pani Puri, which was shared on YouTube by prominent food blogger Laksh Dadwani, has over 31 million views and is one of India’s top trending videos. The street food vendor in the video, Chirag ka Chaska, is located in Nagpur’s Pratap Nagar. He’s made the press on a few occasions for his unusual and intriguing spin on the modest Pani Puri.
It’s quite interesting to see how the Bahubali Pani Puri is made in Nagpur. The dish starts with a huge Puri that is packed with a variety of chutneys and Pani. Regular Pani, a seasonal orange-flavored Pani (replaced by Mango in the summer), Jeera (cumin) Pani, and garlic Pani are all available. The traditional potato stuffing was then piled on top, making a giant cylindrical tower. Curd, boondi, sev, and shelled pomegranate were then added to this massive Bahubali Pani Puri.
The intriguing Bahubali Pani Puri looked wonderful but difficult to eat. One commenter suggested, “You should also make a video on how to eat it.” “Can’t believe there’s a pani puri in the world that can’t be eaten in one bite!” wrote another.
