She Was Homesick in Mumbai … So Her Dad Sent Her Maa Ke Haath Ka Khana from Kolkata 

�� “Papa, I Miss Ma Ke haath ka Khaana…”

It was a quiet Tuesday evening in Mumbai.

Aarushi had wrapped up work, skipped dinner, and sat by the window watching the city rain — but her thoughts were in Kolkata. On an impulse, she dialed home. She tried to sound okay, but her father knew that pause, that sigh.

“Papa... I’m managing. But I really miss Ma ke haath ka khaana…”

That was all he needed to hear. He didn’t tell her to “adjust.” He didn’t suggest ordering something fancy. He simply said, “Don’t worry, beta.”And then, without another word, he opened the JustMyRoots app.

��️ Not for a restaurant meal. Not for a ready-made combo.

But to use the service that understands emotion: DFH – Direct From Home.

The idea was simple, yet powerful:

Her mother would cook her favorite fish fry,mutton curry,basanti pulao and kheer ,at home in Kolkata, the way Aarushi loved eating — slow-cooked, and tempered with maa’s signature touch. And JustMyRoots would take care of the rest.

The team arrived at their home, packed the food in special food grade containers and ensured the specialised packaging preserved the freshness and the kept the  feelings intact.

This wasn’t just a delivery.It was a bridge between two cities.A father’s reassurance.A mother’s warmth.A daughter’s comfort. All packed in a dabba.

By the next day, when Aarushi opened the box in Kolkata, her entire PG smelled like home.

One spoonful, and the tears rolled down. Not just because of the familiar taste—but because of what it imbibed. She may have moved 1,500 km away, but home had found a way to reach her.

Direct Dil Se Dil Tak!
