I may be failing at my “only have coffee three times a week and then the caffeine doesn’t get to you” system. I am sitting in my office on a no-caffeine day dreaming of coffee. Maybe I should get a hot chocolate instead and see if I can trick myself.
So! Here’s the idea! For every celebrity, there is a perfect kind of hot drink that matches exactly their personality. I’ll start with the easiest one.
Shahrukh: Espresso. Strong, bitter, addictive.


Sidharth Malhotra: Sweet, but a little empty. Low fat latte.


Prabhas. Strong, rough, has a bit of a kick to him. Irish coffee (coffee with Irish whiskey).


Nivin Pauly. Sweet, maybe a little too much fat, and one of my favorites. Whole milk caramel latte.


Vidya Balan. Rich, strong, sustaining. Bulletproof coffee, the new style with butter in it that gives you loads of calories to start the day.


Sai Pallavi. True southern, filter coffee. Strong and sweet.


Aamir Khan. Small, strong, popular in Europe. Turkish Coffee.

![]()
Amitabh. Powerful, classic, evergreen popular. Black coffee.


Varun Dhawan. Beloved of young women, a little weak and a little unthreatening but all the more palatable for it. Milk hot chocolate.


Madhavan. The stronger version, the one that you crave more and mover as you get older. Pure dark hot chocolate.


Salman. Cheap and basic and popular. Coffee with cream and sugar.


Madhuri. Classically Indian, spicy and hot. Chai.


Anil Kapoor. Light and sweet and soothing and something you come to appreciate as you age. Hot tea with honey.

So, Which of these do you think is most perfect?
I’m still stuck on Shahrukh and espresso. Just so right!

Which of these do you disagree with?
I’m not thrilled with Anil and hot tea with honey. It’s fine, but I feel I could do better. Anil is a bit stronger than tea with honey.

And is there any drink/person that I missed?
Tea with cream! I love it and I couldn’t think of who it is most like.

All of these are perfect! Especially Shahrukh and Madhuri
Opinions on what Tovino Thomas might be?
He seems to be unique, different, but in a very darkly attractive package.

An unexpected mix of flavors of some kind. Garlic hot chocolate? No, that doesn’t seem right, on many levels. I saw a thing for apple cider hot chocolate, maybe that?

All are perfect, but Madhavan is the best.
And for Tovino – something sweet and appealing on the outside, but rich and more bitter inside.

How about Peppermint Mocha coffee for Dulquer? Sweet chocolate and cool all at the same time.
Maybe loose leaf Earl Grey without the honey for Anil. Classics taste the best, especially with time to steep to bring out the full flavor.

Maddy is perfect. My thought when I saw the headline was, Shah Rukh will be espresso, but Maddy better be hot chocolate (the good stuff). 🙂
I’d do black tea for Amitabh–it’s clear and classy, he’s clear and classy. Rani–mulled wine? I like mulled cider for Anushka Shetty.
Green tea–Manisha Koirala. Iced coffee–Irrfan–a little strange at first, but delicious and refreshing with many variations.
Who should coffee and brandy be? Coffee and Baileys?

Black tea for Amitabh is good, and so is mulled wine for Rani, a little tangy and a little adult but goes down easy. Love Iced Coffee for Irrfan, it’s also usually served in a taller glass, so that’s perfect.
Coffee and brandy, hmm. Arjun Rampal? Soothing and warming and dark and rich?
Following the same line of thinking, Coffee and Baileys is John Abraham? Oh! Or maybe Aditya Roy Kapoor?

Maybe coffee and brandy, Prithviraj, and coffee and Baileys, Arjun K?
Arjun Rampal, maybe cappuchino. Nice but not thrilling, for me.

Ooo, coffee and Brandy for Prithviraj is perfect! I might accept coffee and Bailey’s for Arjun K. Oh! What about Ayushmann for coffee and baileys?

I will grudgingly accept this explanation on Arjun R.’s behalf. And you should watch more Ayushmann movies in general! Because he has great taste in scripts. check out Shubh Mangal Saavdhan, I think it’s on Prime.

Wow very fitting descriptions! Esspecially for the three Khans! Sadly I don’t like Coffee that much, I am more of a tea person so I would probably go with Anil Kapoor and sometimes a little Varun for the really cold, cuddly days 🙂
