With Celebrity MasterChef getting closer to its grand finale, the competition is intensifying. Among the strongest contenders trending on social media is Gaurav Khanna, who has presented his incredible cooking skills throughout the show. During a recent episode, he made a healthy granola bar that impressed the judges immensely, particularly Chef Vikas Khanna. Nevertheless, despite the accolades, he still ended up in the black apron challenge, which surprised him as well as his fans.
Vikas Khanna’s Big Compliment To Gaurav Khanna
In the final challenge, Gaurav Khanna and Kabita Singh were assigned to cook together to make a meal. Their dessert, a healthy granola bar, impressed the judges, with Vikas Khanna even commenting that Gaurav could pack up and begin a business venture with his dish. It was a moment of pride for Gaurav, who grinned from ear to ear after getting such a huge compliment from one of India’s top chefs.
Nonetheless, their chicken dish did not impress, and although the judges praised the dessert, both competitors were told they would be having the black apron challenge. This disappointed Gaurav’s fans because they felt that his impressive performance would have been enough to secure his safety.
Since there were only five contestants left in the competition, every task was serious business. Gaurav, Kabita Singh, Faisal Shaikh, and Archana Gautam were all in the danger zone and had to go through a high-risk black apron challenge. All eyes were on them as fans waited with bated breath for the outcome.

Fans React To Gaurav Khanna’s Black Apron Challenge
Social media was filled with comments from fans who thought that Gaurav was unjustly put in the bottom four. One fan commented, ‘He received so much praise for his dessert, but he was made to don the black apron. My heart aches watching this.’ Another said, ‘His food was healthy, tasty, and restaurant-quality. It can be on any menu, but he is in the danger zone. Unfair!’
Despite the failure, Gaurav Khanna is still a fan favourite, and his fans are expecting him to come back stronger.
As the finale looms near, will Gaurav reach the number one position, or will this task be the last one for him? The audience waits with bated breath to see!
