Television actor Gaurav Khanna recently lifted the trophy and donned the prestigious chef’s coat as the winner of Celebrity MasterChef Season 1. Riding high on the success of the culinary competition, the show has now returned with a special edition titled Masterclass. The first episode, which aired on April 14, brought together fan-favourite Celebrity MasterChefs, a few standout home cooks from previous seasons, and renowned judges Vikas Khanna and Ranveer Brar.
The makers have now dropped the teaser for the episode of Masterclass, featuring none other than Celebrity MasterChef second runner-up Tejasswi Prakash. In the clip, Tejasswi is seen walking viewers through the recipe of her much-loved traditional Maharashtrian fish dish — the very one that earned her a special knife from Chef Ranveer Brar during the competition.
While sharing the recipe, Tejasswi also revealed the reason behind adding a lot of spices to it. She shared that her boyfriend, Karan Kundrra, is not a fan of fish, but he likes this Maharashtrian fish cooked by her.
Tejasswi can be heard saying, “Karan is a Punjabi, so they are not usually very fond of fish. But he prefers only Maharashtrian-style fish. I think fish is something which I usually cook for him, and he loves eating it. But he is very particular about eating fish. As he is not a fan of fish and he senses any strong fishy smell, then he doesn’t like it. So when I cook fish, I rather try to make the fish smell of garlic and tamarind than fish. That’s why I add a lot of these things.”
Tejasswi Prakash and Karan Kundrra, the ‘IT’ couple of telly town, met in Bigg Boss 15 house in 2021. They eventually fell in love, and their romantic chemistry is going strong even after years since the show ended. Undoubtedly, the madly-in-love duo are setting couple goals with their loved-up social media posts and outings.
Professionally, Karan Kundrra won the hearts of audiences with his culinary skills in Laughter Chefs Season 2. He returned to the show as Elvish Yadav’s partner after contestant Abdu Rozik took a temporary break during Ramzan. Hosted by comedian Bharti Singh and chef Harpal Singh, the culinary competition boasts well-known TV personalities, including Rahul Vaidya, Ankita Lokhande, Krushna Abhishek, Kashmera Shah, Abdu Rozik, Sudesh Lehri, Abhishek Kumar, Vicky Jain, Rubina Dilaik, Mannara Chopra, and Samarth Jurel.
Tejasswi Prakash, on the other hand, was last seen in Celebrity MasterChef India. The show wrapped up on April 11, and Gaurav Khanna lifted the trophy of the season. Nikki Tamboli was the first runner-up of the show, while Tejasswi Prakash secured the second spot.
