Eesha Koppikar in true Marathi mulgi mode

Actress Eesha Koppikar made puranpolis, gorged on orange sweets and even donned a nine-yard sari while in Nagpur recently.

As part of a shoot for UTV Stars' celebrity-based show "Stars In Your City", Eesha even visited Ganesh Tekri', a temple in Nagpur and offered prayers there.

She also went to the Khaadi market to fill her shopping bags with herbal products.

But how could she give the famous Maharashtrian sweet dish, puranpoli, a miss? She put on the chef's hat and tried her hand at making puranpolis, and after gorging on them, she even did the traditional Lavani dance.

The actress also draped the traditional 'nauvari sari' or the nine-yard sari, and displayed some graceful dance moves. Eesha's visit to the city also included a stop at a local paan vendor's shop, which serves up around 40 varieties of paan.

The episode featuring Eesha's Nagpur adventures will air on Sunday.
