Naming
merchandise after stars popular at
one particular time is not new to
Tamil Nadu, which is famous for blouses
and saris named after movies. We have
also seen cosmetics named after heroines
a practice made popular during the
period of Nadiya. Besides, there are
shops that sell Kushboo Idlis cashing
in on the glamour quotient.
Looks
like this time around it is Asin’s turn
to grace the eateries. She recently stumbled upon
some yummy eatables in a star hotel in Chennai
where she enjoyed the Aapam, surprisingly named
after her. Flattering, yet tasty and I liked it,
confided Asin. To add to the menu, the hotel has
dishes named after Asin starrer movies. The popular
ones being pokkiri chicken , aalwar aapam, majaa
fish fry, annavaram aalu, and sivakaasi jaamun.
Totally bowled over, Asin had her fill before
leaving the hotel.
