There is not much in common between Nellore — a small town in Andhra Pradesh— and Australia. But Pinky Reddy, wife of industrialist GVK Sanjay Reddy, did manage to get the two on one plate.

Reddy, on her social media account, shared a photo of her with Australian celebrity chef Gary Mehigan. Turns out, the two bonded over fish — with Reddy teaching him to cook the perfect Nellore fish curry and Mehigan returning the favour with a recipe for Australian fish fry.

“It was wonderful hosting @garymehigan as he explores authentic Andhra food and taste palates. Taught him Nellore fish curry, and learnt Australian fish fry from the master!” Reddy captioned the photo.
