Celebrity Masterchef: Gaurav Khanna and Tejasswi Prakash become the first two finalists of the show; fans celebrate

With just a few days left for the Celebrity Masterchef finale, the competition is getting fierce on the show. All the celebrity contestants are leaving no stone in giving their best to make a place in the finale of the show. In the latest episode of the cooking reality show, the judges introduced an interesting challenge of cooking International street food in front of the participants.
In the latest episode, an international street food challenge took place. The top six contestants were divided into pairs for the task. Gaurav teamed up with Tejasswi to prepare Indonesian cuisine, while Nikki partnered with Faisu to make Dutch street food. Archana and Rajiv worked together to create British street food.
If that's not all, the judges introduced another twist wherein the fans of the celebrity contestants visited the show to taste the food. Fans were asked to taste the food and even vote for the best dish. They were given gold coins which they had to give to the contestants whose dish they liked.
Once the challenge ended, Tejasswi and Gaurav earned 26 points, while Archana and Rajiv also scored 26 points. Faisu and Nikki led with 27 points. However, the judges had their own golden coins, with each coin adding 10 points to a contestant's score, making the final outcome even more unpredictable.
Vikas Khanna voted for Tejasswi and Gaurav, while Farah Khan supported Rajiv and Archana. With the scores tied, Ranveer Brar had the deciding vote, which he gave to Tejasswi and Gaurav. This secured their victory in the challenge, making them the first two finalists of the show. The episode also witnessed the surprise visit of Gaurav Khanna's wife Akanksha Chamola. During her interaction, Akanksha shared that due to Nikki Tamboli her husband would not be missing her on the show. She also revealed that she and Tejasswi worked together in a show and are best friends.
