Actor Nakuul Mehta and his wife, singer Janaki Parekh recently shared a new episode of his parenting podcast, ‘The Indian Parent Pod’, where he introduced a fresh to raise children, some Nakul called ‘Dal-Chawal parent’. But when the conversation hit a raga with many parents, it was his T-shirt that attracted everyone’s attention.

The couple appeared on the podcast sporting tees, which featured the characters of the animated series ‘Sufi and Joker Bhaiya’. Janki and a friend cum-made series, draw inspiration for their son, Sufi and their love, which he calls the Joker brother with love.

In Podcast, Nakul explained his philosophy of ‘pulses-rice parenting’, a simple, balanced and ground style of raising children.

Speaking about the same, he said, “Dal-rice parenting is the biggest form of parenting outside there,” he said. “If you go to a michelin-style restaurant and order a version of lentils and rice, you can find something like a quinoa lentils soaked in saffron resotto. But in the core, it is still dal-rice, some undercurrent and nutritious. It is a warm throat, it reminds you of the house,” he said.

Nakul explained in detail that there is not a way of parenting and what is in fact what is the pulses-chanting. “I think it’s a mixture of everything. You can decide. AAP boundaries set Car, Aapko Kitna Tadka Daalna Hell (You need to set your boundaries and how much spice you want to add). I think there is no one way to do parenting, but if you can get a balance of all this and create your style, then there is lentil-rice parenting. Lentil-rice parenting means being originally present, being completely there, and being a nutritionist, Nurisher, ”he said.

Janaki replied with praise, “the most unique perspective that I have heard on parenting.”

In the couple’s conversation, fans got online and hence they had a wardrobe. Celebrities like Draushati Dhami and Shubhvi Chokse said in the comment section that they wanted T-shirts for themselves.
