When Radhika Apte and Divyenndu Sharma land up in Versova for an episode of Tere Gully Mein by Curly Tales, the brief is simple: find the city’s best momos. What unfolds, however, is less about ticking off food joints and more about playful banters, inside jokes, college nostalgia, and the kind of easy chaos that comes from two actors who clearly enjoy each other’s company.
Best Momos In Versova Ft. Radhika Apte & Divyenndu Sharma
Their first stop is Suraj Lama Momos, where the conversation starts even before the food arrives. We nudge them into the classic momo debate: traditional or experimental. Radhika is quick and firm. She isn’t experimental at all. Divyenndu, sensing an opening, immediately pulls her leg by claiming she probably loves “maggi momos.” Her response is instant and emphatic: absolutely not. The exchange is small, sharp, and funny, setting the tone for the rest of the episode.
While waiting for their order, the conversation drifts naturally into acting and roles. With both having played investigative or intense characters on screen, they’re asked whether they’ve ever played a detective in real life.
Divyenndu doesn’t miss a beat. In Mumbai, he says, finding reliable household help is no less than solving a mystery, almost as rare as finding a good script. Radhika counters with a more personal memory, recalling how, at 17 or 18, she once spied on her boyfriend. She admits it candidly, adding that with age came the realisation that invading someone’s privacy is never justified.

Then comes a lighter segment called “What’s Your Saali Mohabbat?” Divyenndu picks Mumbai ki baarish. Radhika goes with Delhi ki sardi. Divyenndu, never letting a moment pass quietly, adds that Mumbai rains are only bearable from afar, joking about how risky and unpleasant it becomes if you actually have to step out and survive it.
Food, inevitably, pulls them back into memory. Radhika talks about her college days when chicken momos were a staple, something she could eat endlessly. Divyenndu relates instantly. As a Delhi University student, momo culture wasn’t just food; it was a way of life. When the tasting wraps up, Suraj Lama Momos earns a 6/10 from Radhika and a 7.5/10 from Divyenndu.
The second stop, Lepcha Momos, shifts the energy again. Radhika casually admits she’s followed Divyenndu’s work closely, from Pyaar Ka Punchnama to Mirzapur. He, in turn, sheepishly confesses he hasn’t watched much of hers, triggering another round of playful ribbing.
The surprise here isn’t just the menu (peri peri momos, garlicky variations), but the fact that they’re asked to shape momos themselves. What follows is messy, funny, and oddly competitive. Who shaped the best momo and who won is best left for the episode to reveal.

With its Darjeeling-inspired, street-style vibe, Lepcha Momos clearly leaves an impression. Whether it beats the first stop and how many points it finally scores is the cliffhanger the episode ends on, proof that sometimes, the best food shows aren’t really about food at all.
