    FoodCloud delivers food cooked by stay-at-home women

    Kapoor had invested an undisclosed amount in the said start-up back in May. FoodCloud was founded by Vedant Kanoi, Sanjhi Rajgarhia, and Shamit Khemka in September 2013. It delivers hygienic and home-cooked food made by women home cooks, directly to customers. The start-up, that currently serves in Delhi-NCR, Mumbai, and Kolkata, plans to expand to six more cities across India.

    Kapoor-starrer 'Panipat' going slow at the box office

    Separately, on the Bollywood front, Kapoor-starrer period drama Panipat, which is currently running in the theaters, has garnered mixed reviews from critics, and has recorded an underwhelming box office performance so far. The movie, directed by Ashutosh Gowariker, also stars Sanjay Dutt and Kriti Sanon. He will next be seen in Dibakar Banerjee's black comedy movie Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar, also starring Parineeti Chopra.
