‘Children face bullying at school all over the world, with one in every three students subject to attacks at least once a month’- This astounding finding by UNESCO, led the UN to raise global awareness about the issue and institute the International Day against Violence & Bullying at School in Nov’2020. Even in India, the scene is no different. To counter this, Tiger Krunch realized the importance of familiarising kids with Self- defense through Martial Arts which builds mental and physical strength and resilience to counter conflict situations. And we did it in an entertaining way, with Sonu Sood, the campaign ambassador taking children on a virtual tour around the globe to familiarize them with 5 different forms of Martial Arts- (1) Israel – Krav Maga (2) Japan – Judo (3) Brazil – Jujitsu (4) India – Kalaripayattu (5) Korea – Taekwondo.
Through the course of the five-part video series, Sonu Sood encourages kids to resolve conflicts – first through a friendly conversation or by sharing a yummy treat of chocolatey Tiger Krunch biscuits, however in a situation where all means of amicably resolving a conflict seems impossible then the second best thing to do is to stay alert and defend oneself using some of the techniques taught in the series.
Talking about the campaign and the association with Bollywood action star, Sonu Sood, Mr. Vinay Subramanyam, Britannia Industries Ltd. said, “Britannia Tiger Krunch stands true to its philosophy – to always deliver the best value, be it in having the most indulgent cookie experience at Rs. 5 or overcoming any difficult situation by putting one’s best self forward. The Krunch Khao, Punch Dikhao campaign is an attempt to empower children to be their best, stay safe in conflict situations and build physical and mental strength. Martial art forms teach kids self-defense and also valuable life skills such as discipline, focus, self-esteem, and goal orientation.” He further added, “And who better than Sonu Sood to teach children these values and inspire them to face any challenge that life throws their way with sheer grit and perseverance.”
Sharing his thoughts on donning the hat of a martial arts instructor for the campaign, Bollywood action star and People’s Hero, Sonu Sood said, “Being a fitness enthusiast and a Martial Arts aficionado not only equipped me to be physically strong but also instilled discipline and increased my self-confidence. I am glad that by being part of Britannia Tiger’s ‘Krunch Khao, Punch Dikhao’ campaign I now have the opportunity to inculcate these lifelong values in young minds and nudge them to learn martial arts and know about self-defense techniques. There are many martial art forms across India and the globe as depicted in the series”.
To take the campaign to the masses, Britannia Tiger Krunch has also collaborated with Udemy – a leading global learning platform. This association will enable youngsters to take special online courses ranging between 40 minutes to 7 hours on the five martial art forms at discounted rates starting from INR 525/-. On registration, the user wins a Rs.150 Udemy voucher that can be redeemed to complete these special courses on martial art forms and more. By logging onto the campaign website and going through the five videos, the kids also stand a chance to get a “Krunch Khao, Punch Dikhao” certificate which they can then download.
So what are you waiting for, Krunch Khao, Punch Dikhao!

Conrad Pune gives a gentle ode to Peshawar’s culinary heritage with The Peshawar Chapter at Coriander Kitchen and Zeera

Pune; 16th January 2026: In an age of bold flavours and louder plates, Coriander Kitchen and Zeera at Conrad Pune choose to pause with its exclusive, limited edition culinary showcase – ‘The Peshawar Chapter’. Available from 16th to 25th January to all guests, this thoughtfully curated experience draws inspiration from the understated, deeply rooted culinary traditions of Peshawar.


Peshawari cuisine has always been shaped by time that includes patient techniques, slow simmering and recipes passed down through memory rather than measurement. Curated by Chef Rizwaan Qureshi, The Peshawar chapter draws from generations of culinary practice, bringing these principles to life through a menu that values depth, balance and restraint. Each dish on the menu unfolds gently on the palate, revealing layers of flavours that feel both comforting and profound.

From the smoky warmth of Murgh Tikka to the soulful richness of Dal-e-Qureshi and delicate balance of Subz Begum Bahar, every preparation reflects a cuisine that understands harmony intuitively. There is richness without heaviness, spice without aggression and a sense of nostalgia that lingers without overwhelming your taste buds. The limited-edition menu honours a culinary language rooted in heritage, where excellence lies in knowing when to hold back.

Speaking about the inspiration behind the menu, Chef Rizwaan shares, “The food of Peshawar doesn’t impress you instantly, but it’s a preparation that you will remember long after the meal. These are dishes I’ve grown up with. It’s a cuisine that takes its time, respects ingredients and carries generational stories. With The Peshawar Chapter at Conrad Pune, I wanted to bring that sense of patience and confidence to the table.”
Set within the calm elegance of Coriander Kitchen and Zeera, the experience invites diners to slow down and engage with the food as art, memory and legacy. Carefully curated as a treat for the senses, The Peshawar Chapter explores how some of the most powerful flavours are often those that speak softly and stay with you long after the last bite.
The Peshawar Chapter is available exclusively at Coriander Kitchen and Zeera, Conrad Pune from 16th to 25th January. So come along with your friends and family for a treat to your senses.
