Rajinikanth : The superstar used to go the whole hog not long ago. His menu was always elaborate. But, to regain his youthful looks, he chose to be austere with his food choices. The result was there for everyone to see in Chandramukhi. He has a simple breakfast of idli and juice. Lunch includes a few slices of vegetables and fruit, a bowl of rice and rasam. Dinner means two chapathis and a bowl of vegetable dish. He has lot of buttermilk or coconut water along with boiled peanuts in between shots.

Kamal Hassan : He is just as versatile in his food preferences as in his acting. Breakfast is egg white with chapathi or dosa. Lunch is an elaborate affair with non-vegetarian fare with generous portions of sea food. For snacks, the list is quite impressive with sprouts, cashews, almonds, dates and plenty of fruit juices. One cannot miss his well toned muscles and now we know why.
