Padma Lakshmi's viral moments don't impress her teenage daughter.
The Top Chef alum's fame has stuck on TV screens and phone screens, though Krishna, 15, doesn't notice.
PEOPLE caught up with the former Taste the Nation host, 54, at the opening night premiere of Shakespeare in the Park's production of Twelfth Night on Thursday, Aug. 21.
When Lakshmi was asked about how her daughter reacts to her viral videos, she had a blunt answer.
"She [couldn't] care less, honestly," the author of the upcoming cookbook, Padma's All American, told PEOPLE, turning to Krishna and asking, "How do you react?"
The teen confirmed her mother's original answer: "Oh my God, I don't care."
The rising high school freshman is often featured in Lakshmi's social media posts, whether they are cooking or trying the latest TikTok trend.
Krishna's culinary prowess is even featured in Lakshmi's upcoming cookbook, set to be released on Nov. 4, 2025.
Lakshmi told PEOPLE about her daughter's recipe inclusion earlier this summer. "I'm trying to show how recipes evolve, and so that's how her recipe came about," Lakshmi said.

She continued, explaining their dynamic in the kitchen, "I like to cook with her. Actually, she prefers to cook with her father, to be honest. She says I'm a little overbearing."
Twelfth Night stars Lupita Nyong'o and her brother Junior Nyong'o as twins Viola and Sebastian, Jesse Tyler Ferguson as Andrew Aguecheek, Sandra Oh as Olivia and Peter Dinklage as Malvolio, among others.
Shakespeare in the Park's Twelfth Night runs from Friday, Aug. 22, through Sept. 13. Ticket information is available at publictheater.org
