[Official ] Interview Preparation 2021 - Ask Questions, Debates and Doubts, Hobbies, Home State

The one with the hobbies: 

I generally enjoy cooking and have been trying new recipes lately those which I like to eat. But I am not well versed with various cuisines. What range of knowledge (practical) one should possess in cooking?

I also like to watch movies and web series. Have watched hundreds of movies and good 20-25 tv series* (full runtime). But here it is purely for entertainment basis and any relation to productivity is fictional. So, what one is expected to know in this field to not look like a serial time killer? 

Lastly, I think I like to read. But then it is scattered read just few hindi and english novels here and there. Some non fiction books also. I also read lot of trash on internet, doesn't count though. I would have read some 30-40 books. However, I am not a sucker for 'classics' (western literature). This might not be a good situation infront of well read people. 

All in all I am totally clueless about the whole hobby thing. Any suggestions would be helpful. 

*Edit 1: counting number of tv series in my head and then making a correction.

@Neyawn  Thank you. 🙃 And yes, do share the video. 
I do use heeng in tadka which also reminds me of a scene from movie Queen. All my hobbies are converging. :D
