Actress Preity Zinta turns heads in Mumbai by stepping out wearing a black T-shirt that reads “Team Tukaram Mundhe.” Photos from her appearance and her ongoing promotions for her upcoming film, “Vibe,” prompt social media users to ask what the message refers to and why it is gaining attention.

The name on her T-shirt refers to Tukaram Mundhe, who serves as the Commissioner of the Maharashtra Food and Drug Administration (FDA). According to the state FDA, the department oversees the safety and compliance of food, medicines, and cosmetics in Maharashtra. Both outlets link the public interest around Mundhe to his recent high-profile food-safety drive in Mumbai.

That initiative, described as involving inspections and enforcement against food businesses, is reported to focus on alleged problems such as hygiene lapses, pest infestations, improper food storage, and inadequate sanitation, with some establishments facing penalties including suspension or cancellation of licences. The outlets note that Mundhe’s actions also attract attention beyond the enforcement sphere, including references and commentary from public figures, contributing to the online curiosity sparked by Zinta’s shirt.
