Celebrity MasterChef has been gaining attention for its unique concept of bringing celebrities into the kitchen, allowing them to showcase their culinary skills while competing for the coveted title. However, the show has recently been overshadowed by constant drama, which has left many viewers disappointed. Instead of just focusing on cooking, it seems some contestants have turned the kitchen into a battleground of egos and heated arguments.
One of the most talked-about moments on the show recently involved Archana Gautam. The actress received significant backlash after making rude comments about Tejasswi Prakash, sparking a wave of criticism from fans and fellow contestants. This was just one of the many incidents that have shifted the focus of the show from cooking to conflict. Viewers have started to express their frustration, with many feeling that the drama is taking away from the cooking competition they signed up to watch.
Nikki Tamboli, another contestant, has also been at the center of several confrontations. After her altercation with Gaurav Khanna, the spotlight shifted to her latest spat with Rajiv Adatia. A newly released promo for the show reveals a tense moment between Nikki and Rajiv. The promo begins with judge Ranveer Brar asking Rajiv about the team player who has disappointed him the most. Without hesitation, Rajiv names Nikki Tamboli, setting the stage for a fiery confrontation.
In the promo, Nikki immediately lashes out at Rajiv, calling him “bavrat,” a Marathi term meaning someone who lacks intelligence. She continues her verbal attack, accusing him of ruining the entire dish. Her frustration boils over as she sarcastically remarks that some people are only good at talking and fail to deliver when it comes to work. The tension escalates further when Nikki targets Rajiv’s approach to grocery shopping. After Rajiv confessed that he is utterly confused and can’t understand what they are saying, Nikki responds by calling him an “Angrez,” a term she uses to mock him. Rajiv, visibly irritated, doesn’t hold back. He mocks Nikki by imitating her dramatic screams, which only adds fuel to the fire.
The two are part of the same team, and it’s clear that their clash is affecting the group dynamic. Fans of the show have expressed their disappointment over the growing conflict, with many feeling that the show’s cooking challenges are being overshadowed by personal drama. One viewer remarked that the constant bickering reminded them too much of Bigg Boss, the reality show known for its drama-filled atmosphere. Another fan voiced their frustration, urging the producers to restore the focus on cooking and remove the unnecessary conflict.
Despite the growing tension, Celebrity MasterChef continues to draw attention, and the drama doesn’t seem to be slowing down. The show, which premiered on January 27, features a variety of celebrity contestants, including Tejasswi Prakash, Gaurav Khanna, Usha Nadkarni, Dipika Kakar, Faisal Shaikh, Abhijeet Sawant, and Archana Gautam. Chandan Prabhakar was the first contestant to be eliminated, leaving the remaining participants to battle it out in the kitchen. The most recent addition to the show is actress Ayesha Jhulka, who is entering as a wildcard contestant, adding even more excitement and unpredictability to the mix.
