At the Apple BKC launch on April 18, Apple CEO Tim Cook spoke exclusively to Business Today’s Aayush Ailawadi. When asked, in a rapid-fire, if he prefers Mumbai’s Vada Pav or New York’s Hot Dog, Cook replied with Vada Pav. The Apple CEO is set to open the doors of India’s second Apple Store, Apple Saket, in New Delhi on April 20 at 10 am.
Cook was further given a choice if he likes Bollywood or Hollywood. To this, he replied, “I love both. Last night I met a lot of Bollywood people so I'm gonna say Bollywood.”
Cook met with several Bollywood celebrities including Raveen Tandon, Maestro A.R. Rehman and influencers like Prajakta Kohli, Bhuvan Bam and more during his ongoing visit to India. He even reshared a picture by Bollywood actress Madhuri Dixit where he is enjoying a Vada Pav with the actress.
When asked about his favourite Apple device, he said that it was asking for “a favourite child or favourite parent”. He then added that he always carries his iPhone with him; wears an Apple Watch and keeps an iPad and Mac in his bag.
