In a sizzling showdown that kept audiences glued to their screens, Anupamaa star Gaurav Khanna clinched the title of Celebrity MasterChef India Season 1, outshining fan favorites Nikki Tamboli and Tejasswi Prakash.
The grand finale was a culinary spectacle, with Gaurav Khanna walking away with the golden chef’s coat and trophy. Known for his performance as Anuj in Anupamaa, Gaurav proved he’s just as brilliant in the kitchen as on-screen.
From having his dish labeled 'inedible' in the premiere to winning praises from celebrity chefs like Ranveer Brar, Vikas Khanna, and Sanjeev Kapoor, Gaurav's MasterChef journey was dramatic, emotional, and inspirational.
Despite controversy over allegedly copying a Swiss dessert, Gaurav maintained consistency and creativity in his dishes. He received several 'spoon taps' and was awarded the exclusive knife by Chef Ranveer in the finale week.
The show was equally tense between Gaurav and Nikki Tamboli. The two often clashed, especially during group challenges. Nikki, who finished as runner-up, impressed judges with her flavor profiles and attention to detail.
Tejasswi Prakash, who secured third place, charmed the panel with her fusion dishes. She was supported in the finale by her boyfriend Karan Kundrra, making for a heartwarming highlight of the season.
Social media influencer Mr Faisu and reality TV personality Rajiv Adatia also made it to the final week. While they didn’t secure top spots, their unique cooking styles added flavor and diversity to the competition.
Judges Farah Khan, Vikas Khanna, and Ranveer Brar, alongside special guest Sanjeev Kapoor, made the finale night memorable. With emotional moments, intense plating, and high-stakes cooking, the conclusion was both dramatic and delicious.
Post his Celebrity MasterChef win, Gaurav is rumored to join Khatron Ke Khiladi Season 15. While there’s no official confirmation yet, fans are eager to see him take on daring stunts next.
