The upcoming cooking reality show Celebrity Masterchef will showcase celebrities cooking in the kitchen. Among the stars featured in this show are Nikki Tamboli, Rajiv Adatia, and Abhijeet Sawant, who will be seen competing as contestants. Recently, Nikki, Rajiv, and Abhijeet Sawant gave an interview to Bollyy, where they discussed their cooking skills, their bonding on set, and their reactions to the judges' assessments. Let’s find out what they had to say!

  • We’ve seen the promos and Rajiv, you mentioned that you would be cheering for everyone. How much of that actually happened? We saw you full of confidence in the promo. What would you like to say about that?

Rajiv: Yes, I said I’d be cheering for everyone, but now everyone is cheering for me. I feel like on this show, every day there’s a cheer for someone. When we started the show, we took it lightly, thinking we’re celebrities and would get good challenges. But the cheers we received in the first week are still echoing in my ears. However, in this show, everyone needs their own cheer.

Nikki, we saw you get quite emotional in one of the promos. What was the reason? Which moment made you so emotional?

 Nikki: The episode where I became emotional was part of a very challenging task, which we hadn’t expected. That challenge really got to me. I’m very excited to be part of Celebrity Masterchef because, as I always say, food is an emotion, and I’m very particular about food. I can’t stand bad food, and I always strive to cook well. I’m sure our fans are excited, and I believe they will love this season!

  • What’s your relationship with cooking? And after singing, Bigg Boss, and now this cooking reality show, what would you like to say about it?

Abhijeet: Actually, I cook sometimes at home for my family. I enjoy good food and have a good understanding of what tastes good. But this is professional cooking, where you have star chefs judging your work. The pressure is on to impress them and cook great food. We have to perform well so they appreciate our cooking. It’s not a joke; it’s serious business. If something goes wrong, a new challenge awaits the next day.

  • Are the chefs showing you some mercy?

 Nikki: No, not at all, and I think that’s completely fair. Farah Ma’am said something very meaningful—there’s no celebrity here who is considered the best cook. The one who makes the best dish is the star here. Some of us may have more followers, and some may have fewer, but that doesn’t matter. If your dish is good, you’re the star. If you have 100 million followers but your dish isn’t up to mark, then it’s of no use.

  • You’ve all been together for so long now. How has the bonding been, and what was the atmosphere like on set?

Rajiv: I know everyone except Usha Tai and Kavita Ji. I’ve known Gaurav, Teju, and Abhijeet for a while. I met Nikki once before, and I thought she had a very strong character. I felt our personalities might clash, but when I came on the show, from the very first day, our bonding became really strong. We video call each other every day.

  • Is anyone on set a tea or coffee lover?

 Rajiv: I’m a tea lover!

  • What’s your best tea recipe?

Nikki: My best tea recipe involves putting tea leaves in water, adding ginger and spices, a bit of black pepper, cinnamon powder, and cardamom. Then I grind the mixture and add milk. That’s how I make my tea!

  • Would you like to say anything to your fans?

Rajiv: I just want to thank all my fans for their continued support. We’re really grateful to you all. This is a strong show, and I’m sure you’ll love it. You’ll get to see a whole new side of all of us that you’ve never seen before.

Nikki: Yes, we’ve worked really hard, and I’m confident that you’ll love this season. Our emotions are tied to this show, and I’m sure yours will be too. Please do shower us with your love!

Abhijeet: Although we came here with our celebrity tags, we all know how to cook. But for the first time, I’ve learned how to plate dishes properly here.

This season of Celebrity Masterchef will be judged by celebrity chefs Vikas Khanna and Ranveer Brar.
