Bhakarwadi is a traditional crispy, deep-fried, disc-shaped, sweet and spicy snack popular in the western cities of Pune, Maharashtra and Vadodara, Gujarat in India. It was already popular before 1960 when these were not Gujarat or Maharashtra states; they were both a part of Bombay State, and both cultures added their own flavors to each other's recipes.

==History== The only difference was that the neighbor made a "Nagpuri" variant of the snack. Popularly known as pudachi vadi, this "Nagpuri" variant was an extremely spicy roll, whereas the Gujarati staple snack had more garlic and onions. The amalgamation of the spicy pudachi vadi and the shape of Gujarati bakarwadi is the Chitale bakarwadi.
