Celebrity MasterChef is nearing its finale, and the contestants are leaving no stone unturned in impressing the judges by whipping up lip-smacking dishes. Besides good food, the show also offers an interesting blend of drama, tiffs and arguments. In a recent episode, Nikki Tamboli made some serious accusations against Gaurav Khanna. Later, fans witnessed Gaurav Khanna being a bit agitated with the format of the task, especially after Tejasswi Prakash’s win. The contestants were given a food-tasting challenge in which they had to guess the ingredients of a dish. Tejasswi came out on top and gained an advantage, but Gaurav wasn’t too happy. He pointed out what he felt was a flaw in the task. This led to more tension on set.
Gaurav Khanna shared that Tejasswi Prakash had an advantage as she was standing first in the line. He said that it was easy for her to guess as she could pick up simple ingredients like salt. He was standing last and by the time, it was his turn, the contestants had already guessed the basic ingredients making it tougher for him. He mentioned that there was a problem in the format as the next round should have started from him. Judges Ranveer Brar and Vikas Khanna tried to make him understand but he said that it was fine, and he is wrong.
On social media, this episode has led to a war between Tejasswi Prakash and Gaurav Khanna’s fans. The Anupamaa actor is being called as a ‘sour loser’ and more. One of the comments read, “First time felt like gaurav was being sour loser! It was his fault for saying oil when he was not sure which kind of oil was being used and not Teju’s that she said the easier ones. He could have easily said one of the easier ingredients.”
However, Gaurav Khanna’s fans have come out in his support. Many pointed out that he had a valid argument.
Check out what Tejasswi Prakash and Gaurav Khanna’s fans have to say about the episode.

No one has ever pointed out, but Gaurav made a valid point, if the first round started with Teja, the second should’ve begun with the last contestant from the previous round. This way everyone gets a fair chance.#GauravKhanna#CelebrityMasterChefpic.twitter.com/qdAHZKUoHU
