Leeds Indian restaurant ‘thrilled’ as Hollywood A-listers pop in for a curry
It seems even the most star-studded celebrities can’t resist the South Indian flavours of Tharavadu.
It’s no surprise that Tharavadu on Mill Hill is a popular spot for locals and sporting stars alike, known as a firm favourite of Indian Cricket Team Captain Virat kohli and his wife Anushka Sharma.
But now it seems like word has spread, as they recently welcomed a whole host of Hollywood A-listers including Australian actress Rebel Wilson.
She’s up in Leeds filming for the upcoming Christmas comedy, Tinsel Town, alongside Ray Fearon, Lucien Laviscount, and Meera Syal who also stopped by at Tharavadu for some grub.
Posting the exciting news to Instagram, Tharavadu wrote: “We were thrilled to welcome film stars Rebel Wilson, Ray Fearon, Lucien Laviscount, and Meera Syal to our restaurant during their Yorkshire visit for the shooting of the upcoming Christmas comedy, Tinsel Town. Rebel Wilson, in particular, made multiple visits, relishing our sumptuous cuisine and warm hospitality.
“Adding to the excitement, our cherished custom of plate signing was embraced by our celebrity guests. They happily signed our iconic plate—a gesture that has now become a delightful tradition at Tharavadu, capturing the spirit of our commitment to memorable dining experiences. Alongside fun photo opportunities with our staff, these moments have truly enriched our Tharavadu legacy in Leeds.”
Pictures were posted of Rebel posting for a selfie with the staff, alongside Lucien signing a plate which no doubt will be mounted proudly on the restaurant’s walls.
Well, if it’s good enough for them then it’s good enough for us. Anyone fancy a curry?
