Gaurav Khanna and Tejasswi Prakash to Feature on Sony Entertainment Television’s Celebrity MasterChef

This new year, get ready for the ultimate culinary showdown, on Sony Entertainment Television. The highly anticipated format - Masterchef India, promises to be more exciting than ever this season, returning as Celebrity Masterchef – Ab Unn Sabki Seeti Bajegi! The channel has roped in an incredible lineup of celebrity contestants who are ready to put their cooking skills to the test and prove a point.  

The charming Gaurav Khanna, who won hearts on a daily fiction show as Anuj Kapadia, is making a sizzling comeback on television, trading in his romantic hero image for a chef's hat as he participates in the exciting Celebrity MasterChef. Gaurav’s culinary journey began in his struggling bachelor days in Mumbai, where he discovered his passion for cooking. Over time, he's mastered the art of 'Mughalai cuisine' and has even explored international flavors during his travels around the world. Speaking about this new opportunity, he said, “Being a full-time foodie, I also wanted to be on the other side of the story and polish my average cooking skills, which every individual goes through while staying alone in a big city. While I am not professionally trained, I have learned by watching my mother cook over the years, standing beside her in her kitchen, as she cooked my favourite dishes. I'm back to spice up your life, this time with a pinch of salt, a dash of sugar, and a whole lot of heart as I step outside my comfort zone to entertain you while also learning something new along the way.”

Joining him is Tejasswi Prakash – the culinary queen in the making! With a fearless spirit and a competitive streak, we hear she's perfecting her culinary skills to impress her special someone. She has a global palate and is ready to experiment, innovate, and surprise you with her culinary creations. Speaking about her excitement, Tejasswi said, “Reality TV has taught me to be fearless and authentic but cooking on national television is a whole new level of vulnerability. I truly believe that food is a love language, so I’ve decided to put my heart (and culinary skills) on the line to impress the audiences and I hope this is a recipe for success.”

With their reputations on the line, your favourite faces will trade in their scripts and acting chops for aprons and whisks as they battle it out in the kitchen, whipping up delectable dishes and facing tough challenges.
