Tejasswi Prakash is currently busy shooting for the second season of the cooking reality show Celebrity Masterchef. The show premiered on Monday, January 27. Recently, Tejasswi, in an interview, looked back at her journey. She also shared her fangirl moment with Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh.
During an interview with Pinkvilla, Tejasswi Prakash recalled her first meeting with Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh while working on the daily soap Swaragini. However, she remembered being angry as it was a shoot day, and her sequence required her to be clad in a burkha(veil) the entire time. As a result, she could not meet her favourite stars properly.
Tejasswi said, “This is my day in Swaragini. Bajirao Mastani ka promotion was happening, and Ranveer and Deepika had come to the set, and I was obsessed. I was so angry because it was a shoot day, and the entire sequence was happening, and mein chhup chhup ke dekh rahi hu, the whole thing that was happening. Wo poore sequence mein, mein burkha mein hu, toh Ranveer aur Deepika ne meri shakal hi nahi dekhi.”
Tejasswi noted that once the shoot was over, she took off her burkha and asked them if she could take a picture with them. They finally saw her and complimented her, saying “You’re very pretty.”
Tejasswi Prakash starred as Ragini Maheshwari in Swaragini, which put her in the spotlight. Apart from daily soaps, she has appeared in reality series such as Bigg Boss 15 and Khatron Ke Khiladi 10.
Meanwhile, Celebrity MasterChef features Farah Khan as a judge. Chefs Vikas Khanna and Ranveer Brar will also assess the celebs’ cooking abilities. Apart from Tejasswi Prakash, Nikki Tamboli, Rajiv Adatia, Gaurav Khanna, Dipika Kakar, Abhijeet Sawant, Archana Gautam, Faisal Shaikh, also known as Mr. Faisu, Usha Nadkarni, Kabita Singh, and Chandan Prabhakar are part of the show.
