Mumbai, April 25 -- Asks Imran Khan. It is the Japanese word for pufferfish and also one of the most famous and notrious dishes from the country. Prepared from the meat of pufferfish or porcupinefish, it is lethally poisonous if prepared incorrectly.

"The whole body shuts down but the person stays fully conscious as he suffocates to death," says Khan.

The encyclopedic actor goes on to say that he sampled it at Fuji, a Sushi boat and buffet restaurant in Mumbai.

Was it like the last supper? He retorts, "No, I wasn't really expecting to die. A restaurant has to have a license to serve Fugi and the chef who prepares it has to go through a five-year training. Since I was assured on both counts, there were no worries."
