00:00Welcome to Nazriya's Khao Gali.
00:30Today we are going to talk about Butter Chicken.
00:33Butter Chicken.
00:35A dish that is famous all over the world.
00:38But the story behind it is as interesting as its taste.
00:42So today we will talk about the creators of Butter Chicken.
00:45And the bond between them.
00:47The birth of the dish and after that the war of ownership started.
00:51So the story starts from Peshawar in the 1940s.
00:54Where three friends, Kundanlal Gujral, Thakur Das and Kundanlal Jaggi.
00:59Started the restaurant Motimahal.
01:02These three were not only business partners.
01:04But were also close to each other.
01:06They showed each other's support and trust in their work.
01:11After partition, in 1947, these three came to Delhi.
01:15With their families.
01:17But they brought a special recipe with them.
01:20Tandoori Chicken.
01:24After coming to Delhi, the new era of Motimahal started.
01:27But until then, no one knew.
01:30That a small mistake.
01:32Was going to create a dish that would win the hearts of the whole world.
01:39So something happened.
01:40That one day, in Motimahal's kitchen.
01:42Some Tandoori Chicken was left.
01:46Afraid of being wasted, Kundanlal Gujral thought of something.
01:50And then using his culinary skills.
01:53He made a creamy tomato puree.
01:57And he added the leftover Tandoori Chicken to it.
02:01It was a simple decision.
02:03But the taste that came out of that gravy.
02:05Created a new dish.
02:07Yes, Butter Chicken.
02:10Initially, it was called Murgh Makhani.
02:13The magic of Tandoori Chicken and Tomato Gravy worked so well.
02:17That for every customer coming to Motimahal.
02:19This dish became a necessity.
02:22And from here, the journey of Butter Chicken began.
02:25Which became not just a dish, but a legacy.
02:29With the increasing popularity of Motimahal.
02:31Butter Chicken also became famous all over the world.
02:33From London's high-end restaurants.
02:36To New York's street food stalls.
02:38Butter Chicken made everyone go crazy for it.
02:41After leaving Delhi, this dish spread all over India.
02:44And then spread all over the world.
02:46Today, Butter Chicken is not just a dish.
02:49But has become an identity of India.
02:52A global icon.
02:53Which has become a part of everyone's taste.
02:57But when the fame of Butter Chicken was at its peak.
03:00Then another story started.
03:02The life of ownership.
03:09The descendants of Kundanlal Gujral claimed.
03:11That they invented this dish.
03:13But on the other hand.
03:15Kundanlal Jaggi's grandson.
03:17Raghav Jaggi through his Daryaganj restaurant.
03:20Started saying.
03:22That his grandfather was also a co-creator of Butter Chicken.
03:28This war started.
03:29When in 2018, Raghav Jaggi.
03:32Launched a new restaurant called Daryaganj.
03:35Where he claimed.
03:37That his grandfather, Kundanlal Jaggi.
03:39Was also a co-creator of Butter Chicken.
03:42The descendants of Motimahal didn't like this at all.
03:46And they openly challenged this claim.
03:52Till now, this ownership war has reached to the courtroom.
03:55Where both the families have given their documents and witnesses.
04:00Till now, this decision was not made.
04:02As to who is the real creator.
04:04But one thing is for sure.
