In an interview with the BBC in 2020, he was asked by an anchor if his sense of hunger comes from India. Khanna responded, “My sense of hunger came from New York.” He explained further but did not elaborate in this particular interaction. The interviewer begins by highlighting Chef Vikas Khanna's achievements, including cooking for the Obamas and co-hosting with Gordon Ramsay. He then contrasts this success with Khanna's humble beginnings, noting his origins in Amritsar, Punjab.
