We Got Into The Ring With The Great Khali For A Foodie Challenge!

At Curly Tales, we love treating our guests to delicious food, but on Tere Gully Mein with the legend himself, The Great Khali, we took on a food challenge instead. Beating him in a food challenge sounds tough, right? But we decided to go for it. Khali owns The Great Khali Dhaba in Haryana, which also houses a gym. At his dhaba, they serve The Great Khali Thali, a massive platter loaded with a variety of food items. We challenged him to finish the platter within 10 minutes. Let’s see how the showdown of the epic food challenge went.

Can We Beat Khali At ‘The Great Khali Thali’ Challenge?

At his dhaba, they serve a massive thali, and he told us that when he’s hungry, he easily finishes the entire plate by himself. In fact, he even said that one thali would be enough to feed our entire Curly Tales crew. But instead of sending in the whole team, our host decided to take on the challenge one-on-one. She asked Khali if he believed she could finish the thali or possibly win the competition against him. He replied, “Mujhe lagta nahi hai ki kar paoge, but you can try.” He clearly underestimated her, and that’s when she stepped into the ring to try and beat The Great Khali.

The challenge was to finish as many dishes from The Great Khali Thali as possible within 10 minutes. The massive thali included five types of vegetables, rice, veg biryani, curd, two sweet dishes, and lots of naan (breads), along with The Great Khali Salad Plate. Khali’s strategy? Taking massive bites to quickly finish off the dishes. You might be thinking that obviously, Khali would win, right? But this time, Curly Tales beat him and proudly took home the title of ‘The World Thali Champion’! He was impressed and said, “Bada kamaal kar diya aapne, pehli baar mere samne kisi ladki ne itna khana khaya hai.” Turns out, he took Curly Tales too lightly.

Who Would He Challenge For The Thali?

After the challenge was over, we gave him two names of his fellow wrestlers, Undertaker and John Cena, and asked him to choose who he would pick for the food challenge. He chose Undertaker. Why? He said, “Undertaker ko choose karta kyunki woh zyada khana khata hai.” Khali truly picks tough competition, whether it’s in the ring or a food challenge.

He also gave us a sneak peek into his wrestling journey. Want to hear all about it? Catch the full episode on the Curly Tales YouTube channel.
