Commemorating the delicious journey of 75 years, Mukharochak launched a new product ‘Aath Bhaja’, which is a mixture of eight pulses like chana dal, green gram, urad dal, green peas, chickpeas, lobiya etc. The event was anchored by Mir Afsar Ali, who kept the audience entertained with his sense of humour. Mukharochak owner Pranab Chandra said: ‘The Mukharochak family is elated to have Koel with us. The essence of Mukharochak lies in an unparalleled commitment to quality. In our pursuit of excellence, we prioritise the well-being of our customers over fleeting profits. Our rule is simple yet profound: no compromises on quality. Preservatives, chemicals, colours, or subpar ingredients have no place in our products. Thus, today as we celebrate 75 years of our legacy, we look forward to continuing to serve people with our best for more and more years to come’
