Celtic and Rangers heroes helped celebrate the launch of their favourite Glasgow restaurant's dine-at-home range. 

City institution Mister Singh's has launched a new partnership with FK Foods Glasgow Ltd to sell their famous chicken bhoona at Costco in the city's Springburn. 

Based on the family's own 30-year-old recipe, the dish is a favourite with guests at the Elderslie Street eatery. 

Footballing stars Kris Boyd, Frank McAvennie, James McFadden and Billy Dodds are all regulars at the Indian restaurant and love the food.

The bhoona is expected to sell close to 1000 packs over the opening weekend.

Papa Singh, who opened the ‘world famous’ restaurant three decades ago, said: “We have built our reputation on providing fantastic Indian cuisine and warm and friendly Scottish hospitality.

"The new a la carte home dining will deliver a great value offering for both existing and new customers.”

Four generations of the Singh family have been involved in Mr Singh’s India and it has become a favourite haunt of celebrities and sporting stars over the years.

Kris Boyd said: "We have all had many great nights there celebrating wins and the family always make us feel welcome. Their curries and hospitality are legendary so it’s nice to help Papa Singh reach a new audience."

The chicken bhoonas, priced at £5.99, weigh 700 grams and will serve two people.

“The restaurant is a Glasgow landmark and the family are well loved throughout the community so this was an opportunity we couldn’t wait to work on.

"Hopefully, it will lead to more collaborations as we expand the range."

Papa Singh has already teased what iconic dishes we can expect if they should decide to expand their dine-at-home range.

"All the family have been involved and Mark Singh will be working with executive chef Manish Joshi and PK Foods every day to ensure our customers get the authentic taste and recipe passed down through the generations."

His son Satty Singh added: “My dad has been an inspiration to us all. He is the creative force behind our restaurant and his standards of cuisine and service have helped make it a household name.

"We were all so excited by his latest idea and his enthusiasm to continue driving the business forward is an inspiration to us all."
