The latest week of Celebrity MasterChef has brought intense competition, with contestants pushing themselves to the limit. Dipika Kakar, Tejasswi Prakash, Nikki Tamboli, Gaurav Khanna, and others are fighting hard to stay in the game after Chandan Prabhakar and Abhijeet Sawant’s elimination. The challenges have become tougher, and the contestants are giving each other fierce suggestions to stay ahead.
In the latest episode, participants were split into two teams. One team included Gaurav, Tejasswi, Rajiv, and Kabita, while the other had Faisu, Ayesha, Usha Nadkarni, and Dipika. Their task was to cook for a theatre audience, with Gaurav’s team choosing Mexican cuisine and Faisu’s team preparing Korean dishes. Gaurav’s team emerged victorious, ensuring their safety, while Faisu, Ayesha, Dipika, and Usha faced elimination.
Yesterday’s episode intensified the pressure as the four contestants donned black aprons, signaling their fight for survival. Usha Nadkarni managed to escape elimination first as the winning team captain, Gauurav Khanna used his power and saved her. However, Faisu, Dipika, and Ayesha had to compete in another round, where each was assigned a different protein. Dipika had to prepare fish, Ayesha got chicken, and Faisu had to cook a mutton dish.
The judges, Vikas Khanna and Ranveer Brar, raised the stakes by introducing a special ingredient that each contestant had to incorporate into their dish. Dipika presented her fish with a Bengali-inspired sauce, impressing everyone with the balance of flavors. When it was Ayesha’s turn, the judges refused to taste her chicken as it was undercooked. However, they praised her mustard sauce, calling it well-prepared. Lastly, Faisu showcased his Rogan Josh, a classic mutton dish, which the judges tasted carefully.
In the final verdict, Dipika was declared safe. This left Faisu and Ayesha in the danger zone. After much deliberation, the judges announced that Ayesha had to leave the competition, while Faisu survived another round.
Fans reacted strongly to Ayesha’s elimination. One viewer reflected on Tejasswi’s reaction and questioned if she was right about it. Another fan recalled a past moment from Bigg Boss, where Tejasswi had said that her gut feelings often turned out to be correct. A comment read, “Never underestimate a Gemini’s instincts.”
Many viewers expressed support for Ayesha. A user praised her commenting, “Respect for Ayesha ji. Aap ki soch, behaviour mein dignity, dil jeet liya 😍😍.” Another commented, “Happy for Dipika jii , nd sad for Ayesha jii she is very good person , solo nd team she always gave her best Will miss u Ayesha jii 😍.”
With Ayesha’s departure, the remaining contestants are Rajiv Adatia, Tejasswi Prakash, Gaurav Khanna, Archana Gautam, Nikki Tamboli, Kabita Singh, Mr. Faisu, and Usha Nadkarni, continue their battle for the coveted title. The competition is only getting tougher, and the contestants must step up their game to stay in the race.
