Ranveer Brar Shares He Was Once Thrown Out Of A Restaurant
In a conversation with YouTuber Ranveer Allahbadia for his latest podcast, Ranveer Brar opened up about his past struggles. When Allahbadia asked if he had ever thought about fame in the past, Brar said he was never someone who planned things — he just loved staying in the present and doing what he enjoyed most. He then spoke about his time in the United States and how there were days when he had to sleep on benches.
Brar recalled one of the lowest phases of his life — when his restaurant in Boston shut down after a fallout with his partners. “I was thrown out of the restaurant and had nowhere to go,” he said. For a while, he lived on the streets, sleeping on benches and surviving one day at a time. He called that period a major turning point, saying it made him stronger and more grounded. “Those days taught me not to take myself too seriously,” he added. He also shared that he was too proud to ask for help and didn’t know how to deal with failure at the time.
The chef faced the situation with strength, believing that the worst had already happened. He was determined that no one could take away his skill and creativity — the qualities that set him apart.

How Chef Stays Grounded
Coming from such a difficult past, Ranveer Brar also shared how he stays humble every day. “I try to take an auto-rickshaw at least once every day,” he said. He also shared a valuable lesson from his grandfather, whenever one starts feeling too powerful, they should remember that the land only gives back when one works hard on it. Otherwise, everything can disappear in a flood or drought. Brar said that this thought always keeps him grounded.
It’s great to see Ranveer Brar now standing strong, motivating and inspiring millions with his exceptional culinary skills.
