The dal laddu shouldnt me more than 25 rs as per kg was 540 rs but its very healthy in winters . Its made up of chickpea powder( besan) nuts ghee and most importantly Gond( natural gum) which prevents heart stroke and good for lactating women. You got the good price for handmade diary.

Thanks, shublabh Being new to an area one can never know and just hope you don't pay too much more. I'm OK with a little "tourist tax" but it does help when people like yourself give an insight into the product and cost.. Appreciate the information.

Dal laddu is correctly priced. It’s a very expensive real estate in a tourist area with really high rents.

1 tip when buying anything in India take help of local(educated ones) they will help you in real price some of the shopkeeper takes big price seeing a foreigner also ask them to reduce the price that's how we Indians do if he says 50 then ask him for 30 he was will you At least in 35-40

Indian sweets are expensive, if they are made well It might well be approx. 30 Rs. Lets say 25 laddoos fit in a KG then. So 1 laddoo is 40 Gm , 0.04 * 540 Rs = 21.6 ≈ 22Rs

Looking forward to your visit to Punjab, sir! Please do let me know when you're planning to explore this vibrant region. And remember, if you encounter any challenges or need assistance during your time here, don't hesitate to reach out. I'll be more than happy to lend a helping hand. Safe travels, and see you soon in Punjab!

I am from Indore. If it happened to be on your travel list, feel free to write. The cleanest city of Indore is known for savories and bazaars.

Sir, had been following your vlogs for last three days. I am really impressed with your simplicity and kind hearted nature. I am happy that you mostly are meeting good people, except the laddu guy who insisted on paying first and charged you may be more. Best wishes for rest of your India visits.

You looks very gentle and calm 👍

Some of the best street food - Sev Puri, Dahi Batata puri, pani puri, Pav Bhaji, Chhole bhaturay, indo-Chinese, Lassi, kulfi, falooda etc. If you get a cold/flu get you a Mysore sada dosa with sambar.
