Vikas Khanna supports Gaurav Khanna
Later, one of the judges and Michelin-star chef Vikas Khanna came out to support Gaurav. While sharing the clip from the show on his stories, Vikas wrote, “Very rarely you witness culinary greatness like this one. I have to admit that this year’s MasterChef was a next-level benchmark for us. I only wish every celebrity contestant the very best.” Farah Khan, who hosts the show, commented, writing, “Truly 🔥.”
Vikas also questioned trolls for making derogatory comments against Gaurav and wrote, “For all those who are commenting on the brilliant dish made by @gauravkhannaofficial, please let me know which chef created it first in the world. Meringue dripping cones have been done for decades. It was the overall flavour profile and presentation that shook us.”
The finale episode of Celebrity Masterchef will air tomorrow, on April 11.
