Celebrity MasterChef, known for its intense cooking challenges and high-stakes competition, has once again grabbed headlines, but this time, not for its culinary flair. A newly released promo for the show has sparked chatter across social media as it features a heated argument between contestants Nikki Tamboli and Gaurav Khanna.
The dramatic promo, shared by Sony TV on their official handle, showcases the tension between the two stars and hints at a brewing rivalry that extends beyond the kitchen. Nikki Tamboli’s anger takes center stage as she storms off the set, visibly upset with Gaurav Khanna, whom she accuses of being “insecure.”
Nikki Tamboli Walks Off the Set: “I’m Not Coming Back Without an Apology”
The promo begins with Nikki Tamboli in a fit of rage, walking toward the exit and declaring, “I’m leaving the set. This is disrespect. I’m leaving. Joh karna hai karo, jab tak voh sorry nahi bolta na, I won’t be coming (Do whatever you want. Unless he apologizes, I’m not coming back).”
Nikki’s decision to walk off the show shocked both the contestants and viewers, raising questions about what triggered the confrontation.
What Happened Before the Argument?
The promo then takes viewers back to the moment that led to Nikki’s dramatic exit. In a segment where contestants were bidding on the time they would need to cook their dishes, Farah Khan asked Nikki and Gaurav to bid against each other. Gaurav declared a time of 15 minutes, which seemingly frustrated Nikki. She felt that Gaurav was deliberately trying to counter her bid and undermine her confidence.
As the contestants continued preparing their dishes, Chef Ranveer Brar remarked on how Nikki’s anger might fuel her cooking. Meanwhile, Nikki, still fuming, vowed to give it her best shot and said her dish would either be her “worst dish” or her “best dish.”
The Verbal Clash: Nikki Tamboli Calls Gaurav Khanna ‘Insecure’
The situation escalated further when Nikki openly accused Gaurav of being insecure. “Gaurav should accept that he is an insecure man,” she said bluntly.
Gaurav Khanna, surprised by Nikki’s statement, defended himself, saying, “It is not called being insecure; it is called being competitive.” However, Nikki disagreed and stood her ground, saying, “I don’t think anyone has the guts to admit they are insecure, but he is.”
Gaurav appeared taken aback by Nikki’s words, and their argument left viewers wondering whether the tension would affect their performance in the competition.
Fan Reactions and Upcoming Drama
The promo has sparked a wave of reactions on social media, with fans expressing curiosity about how the conflict will unfold. Some viewers have supported Nikki for speaking her mind, while others have sided with Gaurav, praising his competitive spirit.
As the tension between the contestants rises, fans can look forward to more drama, twists, and, of course, delicious dishes in upcoming episodes of Celebrity MasterChef.
