A customer in Borivali, Mumbai, says he found a dead rat inside a Mysore Masala Dosa served at a restaurant while eating with his brother. According to reports, the brother had already taken several bites before the discovery, and he vomits afterward. The customer files a police complaint after the incident.

Both outlets link the case to broader food-safety concerns in Maharashtra, where officials are stepping up checks on restaurants. While the reports focus on the alleged presence of a rat in the dish, they also point to potential health risks from contamination and the need for investigation. Times of India specifically mentions the consumer impact and notes that anyone who eats contaminated food should watch for serious symptoms and seek medical attention. NDTV emphasizes the immediate response, including a demand for scrutiny by food safety authorities such as the FDA, alongside police action. No outlet reports official findings on contamination beyond the customer’s complaint at the time of writing.
