National Award-winning actor R Madhavan has often talked about his simple and easy-to-digest diet. From his gut-friendly Kanji breakfast to protein- and fiber-rich pongal dish, his daily diet has always been a balanced proportion of carbs, proteins, and healthy fats. The secret to the actor's diet is the lifestyle of his grandparents he grew up seeing. In a 2024 interview with YouTube channel 100 Year Life Project by ACKO, the actor recalled his grandparents' daily diet. He said, "They had idli, sambar, rasam and pongal in the morning, they had rice in the afternoon, rice with sabzi in the evening and fiber in the sambar. All the known proteins and supplements you are talking about were not a part of their diet, and still they lived a healthy life with these basic foods."
