Celebrity MasterChef, the cooking-based reality show hosted by Farah Khan, continues to keep audiences hooked with its mix of heartfelt and humorous moments. In the upcoming episode, viewers will witness an emotional moment as contestant Nikki Tamboli breaks down in tears while speaking to her father, Digambar Tamboli, and opening up about their strained relationship.
The promo begins with Nikki sharing that she will be preparing her father’s special recipe—Chicken Ghee Roast—for the challenge. When judge Vikas Khanna asked about her choice, the Bigg Boss 14 star revealed that the dish holds deep sentimental value as it was a staple at her home during special occasions.
After completing the challenge, Nikki presented her dish to the judges. Touched by her story, Chef Ranveer Brar then asked her to bring her phone and call her father, setting the stage for an emotional moment.
Nikki, seemingly hesitant, stated that she wasn’t sure he would pick up her phone due to their disagreements. Despite this, Brar called her father.
To her surprise, her father picked up the call and Brar informed him about the dish she had cooked and praised her performance on Celebrity MasterChef.
Furthermore, in a heartfelt father-daughter moment, Nikki’s dad told her, “I love you, Nikki,” which made her emotional and brought her to tears. She responded, “I love you too, Papa.” Khanna then said, “You are so lucky. I would pay a billion dollars just to hear my dad speak again but I can’t.”
In the end, Farah praised Nikki saying, “Today you had a disadvantage of the least time, still you presented a pretty good dish.”
The promo caption reads, “This win feels personal. We are all proud of you, Nikki!”
Other contestants in Celebrity MasterChef include Rajiv Adatia, Gaurav Khanna, Tejasswi Prakash, Faisal Shaikh, Usha Nadkarni, Archana Gautam and Kabita Singh. Till now Chandan Prabhakar, Abhijeet Sawant and Ayesha Jhulka have been eliminated from the show.
Also, contestant Dipika Kakar has confirmed her exit from the cooking reality show due to her health issues. Makers are expected to announce a new wild card entry soon.
