PRIYANKA CHOPRA JONAS BACKS GYMKHANA FINE FOODS, TAKING MICHELIN STARRED INDIAN FLAVOURS FROM RESTAURANT TO HOME
Global icon, entrepreneur and investor Priyanka Chopra Jonas is adding another dimension to her entrepreneurial journey with her investment in Gymkhana Fine Foods, the home dining brand inspired by London’s celebrated two Michelin-starred Indian restaurant, Gymkhana. Rooted in her own connection with Indian food and the comfort of familiar flavours while living overseas, the investment brings together her personal love for Indian cuisine and her interest in backing distinctive businesses with a strong cultural identity.
Sharing the announcement on Instagram, Priyanka spoke about the nostalgia of Indian food while living away from home, and how she discovered Gymkhana while filming in the UK. Her association with the restaurant grew from that experience, leading her to invest in Gymkhana Fine Foods and its vision of bringing the restaurant’s signature flavours into home kitchens.

Captioned as “Living outside of India I constantly crave a taste of home… while filming in the UK I discovered the 2-Michelin Star restaurant #Gymkhana and if you have ever eaten at any of their gorgeous spaces in London/ Vegas / Dubai you already know what makes the food so so special. For those who want that same feeling in your home, on your dining table, I’m happy to say I’m a proud investor in @gymkhanafinefoods. From their kitchen, directly to yours… With love PS- thank you @gymkhanalondon @gymkhanafinefoods for literally bringing your kitchen from London, all the way to our home in LA. ❤️”
The announcement came with a special Diwali celebration at Priyanka’s Los Angeles home recently, where the Gymkhana team brought its kitchen all the way from London to create an elaborate Indian feast for her family and friends. It was a celebration that brought her investment story to life, quite literally taking the flavours she had discovered abroad and bringing them to her own dining table.
Located in Mayfair, London, Gymkhana is renowned for its contemporary interpretation of Indian cuisine and holds two Michelin stars. Gymkhana Fine Foods translates the restaurant’s culinary expertise into a carefully developed range of cooking sauces, marinades and chutneys, created using recipes developed and approved by its Michelin starred chefs. The range allows home cooks to recreate the depth, precision and distinctive flavours of the restaurant in their own kitchens, making an elevated Indian dining experience more accessible.
For Priyanka, whose career and entrepreneurial ventures span continents, the investment also reflects a larger connection to her Indian roots. Whether through her work in international entertainment, her production banner Purple Pebble Pictures and its commitment to distinctive storytelling, or her business interests, she continues to build bridges between Indian experiences and global audiences. Her investment in Gymkhana Fine Foods brings that connection into the world of food, taking something deeply personal and culturally familiar and giving it a wider platform.
From a restaurant experience discovered while filming in the UK to an investment that brings those flavours into homes across markets, Priyanka’s association with Gymkhana Fine Foods is a meeting of personal nostalgia, culinary heritage and global ambition.
