Celebrity MasterChef: Celeb contestants fight over Delhi and Mumbai chaat food - The Times of India
Celebrity MasterChef
will see an ultimate culinary showdown. This week, the show takes a spicy turn as
celebrity contestants
engage in a heated yet friendly battle over one of India’s most beloved street foods—chaat! The ever-persistent Delhi vs. Mumbai food rivalry is back, but this time, it’s happening inside the MasterChef kitchen. With
Chef Kunal Kapur
and
Chef Ranveer Brar
leading the charge, along with the ever-entertaining Farah Khan, this episode promises to be packed with sizzling debates, bold flavors, and, of course, some lighthearted drama.
The kitchen is buzzing as contestants passionately defend their city’s chaat supremacy. Chef Kunal Kapur firmly states, “Delhi’s chaat is the best!”—a sentiment backed by actor Gaurav Khanna, who adds, “Usha Tai na jaane asli chaat ka swaad!” (Usha Tai doesn’t know the real taste of chaat!). However, Usha Tai is quick to counter, saying, “There’s no chaat like the ones we find in Mumbai.” Social media sensation Faisal Shaikh, known for his humor, cheekily jumps in with, “Mumbai ki chaat lagaai sabki waat!” (Mumbai’s chaat beats them all!).
The friendly feud escalates as the contestants get to work, preparing their own unique versions of the beloved street delicacy. The Delhi Spice Challenge becomes a stage for both culinary skills and comedic jabs. But beyond the banter, it’s the flavors that will ultimately decide the winner. Will Delhi’s bold and tangy flavors reign supreme, or will Mumbai’s innovative and vibrant street food steal the show?
This week, Dipika Kakar Ibrahim made an emotional exit owing to her injury. Citing reasons that she won’t be able to stress her shoulder, Dipika left the show.
With each plate telling a story, this episode of Celebrity MasterChef is sure to leave both contestants and viewers craving for more.
