Celebrity MasterChef contestants list
Celebrity MasterChef India included contestants like Gaurav Khanna, Tejasswi Prakash, Dipika Kakar, Rajiv Adatia, Nikki Tamboli, Archana Gautam, Faisal Shaikh (Mr Faisu), Usha Nadkarni, Kabita Singh, Chandan Prabhakar and Abhijeet Sawant.
Archana Gautam was the latest contestant to get evicted from Celebrity MasterChef India.
Tejasswi and Gaurav secured their spots as the first two finalists after winning an international street food challenge and earning golden coins.
Recently, the show grabbed eyeballs after Gaurav was accused of copying a dessert originally created by Switzerland-based chef Dives Josh on Celebrity MasterChef India. Social media users were quick to point out that the actor's honey-dripping dessert looked strikingly similar to one previously shared by Josh on his Instagram feed.
The chef himself seemed to subtly call out the show and Gaurav for the apparent duplication. Sharing the promo clip on his Instagram story, he wrote, "Well done, so creative…" with a teasing emoji, and in another story, he labelled his own version as "the original."
