Mumbai chef Sanjyot Keer has walked the red carpet at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival with several other Indians this year. Interestingly, he happens to be only the second chef after celebrity chef Vikas Khanna to do it, and that too in style as he was styled by celebrity stylist Eka Lakhani, with his outfit designed by Rachit Ajmera.
For Keer, who is known for his channel ‘Your Food Lab’ on Instagram and YouTube, amassing around 9 million followers on social media, this platform is more than just showing up. Being a chef and creating engaging content about food, we all know how food tells the stories of different cultures and Keer has kept at it over time and even cooked Misal Pav with Ed Sheeran when he was in India. More importantly, Sanjyot produced an award-winning short film `Before We Die` that brings to light the dire water crisis in the interiors of Maharashtra. It even won the prestigious Dadasaheb Phalke Award.
