Alaksha’s roots go back to southern India where she grew up. She was raised in Bangalore, the third most populous city in India. Her mother and grandmothers are a large influence in her life, from whom she learned most of those authentic dishes. Curry in a Hurry was showcased on "Food Truck Nation" on the Cooking Channel and also on "Family Restaurant Rivals" on the Food Network. Alaksha also had the honor to cook along side Celebrity Chef Pati Jinich who came to her restaurant and learnt how to cook her famous Butter Chicken
