Tendulkar.
Tendulkar enjoys 'varan bhaat' (Maharashtrian dal chawal) when he comes from long overseas tours. "I like varan bhaat, when I am back from long tours. It is not something you get outside India. Varan bhaat with little bit of ghee and lemon squeezed on top of it," he said. http://www.dnaindia.com/sport/report_sachin-tendulkar-recalls-gourmet-delights_1759324-2 :D

In most poor/developing countries , its usually some form of starch( noodles, rice,dough) along with some form of cheap protein( beans, lentils) Brazils national dish is Feijoada
Feijoada has beef and pork with beans. It's like the American Chili.

why no rajma chawal ?????!!?!!?!
Rajma chawal is pure north Indian... isiliye nahin hai . I have never heard any southie make rajma chawal in their homes, or even eat with delight for that matter. But it is definitely one of the most popular north Indian comfort food.
