The city of Bengaluru is grieving the loss of Suryanarayana Hegde, the man who established the famous Veena Stores in Malleswaram. What began as a modest condiment outlet in 1977 eventually transformed into a cherished South Indian food destination, celebrated for its signature idli-vada, kharabath, and shavige bath. Actor Deepika Padukone, who shares a deep personal history with the establishment, also offered her condolences for the passing of the founder.
