Actor Viineet Kumar who is shooting for his upcoming yet untitled film in Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, seems to be having an amazing time between shots. Sometime back, he was spotted playing cricket with college students in the city of nawabs. And recently, he did something sweet for the crew of his film.

He reveals that he is fond of cooking and he is especially good at making a special kind of tea. He says, “When I was studying in medical college, my batch mates and seniors were very fond of the tea that I would make.” The Saand Ki Aankh actor adds, “I used to make tea at home. Then there would be days when I would tell my mother I would want to cook something for the family. I thoroughly enjoy being in the kitchen.”

So what’s so special about the signature beverage? “I make it with a lot of love. When you make or cook something for someone with a lot of heart, it tastes delicious. I can gauge the taste of the tea that I’m making just by looking at its colour. I revisited the good old days and it was quite refreshing for me to make my special tea for the crew. And what was even more amazing was to see how the crew loved it. Mere chai mein abhi bhi woh baat hai!” he says with a laugh.
