"Paan" in Indo-Aryan languages is a combination of betel leaf with areca nut which is widely consumed throughout South Asia[2] and Taiwan.

The specific paan dan that was used by Wajid was later given to Queen Mary during the Delhi Coronation Durbar and Indian tour of 1911-1912, then presented to the Britmuseum in 1912.

People chewed it to suppress their hunger as it has mild painkilling effects similar to a narcotic.
