Ready for a dose of feels?
The 93-year-old man from Mumbai, Boman Kohinoor – who calls himself the number one fan of the British royal couple – has finally met Prince Williams and Kate Middleton.
The internet is a really happy place right now and is going ‘aww’ for Kohinoor, who owns Mumbai’s iconic Britannia & Co. restaurant.

While the internet was busy doing this, the 93-year-old meanwhile had an alternate plan to visit Oval Maidan to catch a glimpse of Will and Kate at a charity cricket match. Unfortunately, at the last minute, he had to cancel that because of cramps in his leg. But then came a phone call, which brought the widest of smiles on Boman’s face.
“I met Their Royal Highnesses this evening at the Taj. They were very kind and asked me about my restaurant and my favourite dishes there,” Kohinoor told Condé Nast Traveller, adding:
I told them about the berry pulao and how it’s made using my late wife’s recipe. They asked me if I could cook. I said no, but I serve my customers well. I told them: give my love to the Queen, and to [your] children Prince George and Princess Charlotte, too. I wish I had more time to speak, but I’m thankful for this opportunity.
The internet is smiling with him now
