op band Nidji vocalist Giring Ganesha, 32, says that he has quit eating rice regularly. Consuming rice could put his health at risk, said Giring, as quoted by tribunnews.com.

'€œI like to eat other kinds of foods when we are on tour,'€ Giring said.

'€œTherefore, my body is less tolerant to rice. I often feel sick if I eat rice,'€ he added.
