"Happy wife is equal to a happy life," chef Varun Aaron can be heard saying in the video.
"This is for your friends who are coming in evening," Varun's wife Ragini join in.
"Each time whenever a guest comes, half of the time I am just sitting right there, waiting for the food to get ready because the chef is in the shower," she adds.
The 29-year-old fast bowler has played nine Tests and as many One-day International matches for India. He has claimed 18 wickets in Tests and 11 in ODIs.

During the IPL 2019, Aaron had expressed his hope to make a comeback to Indian team. He had claimed that if he is able to bowl at his potential, he's sure he'll be able to stage a comeback in the team.
"I am very confident to play for the country. I know I haven't played for the last three years because of a few setbacks here and there. I am coming back from a very good domestic season. I am just trying to bowl at my potential and I know if I bowl at my potential, I'll make a comeback into the team," Aaron said.
