In the latest episode of Celebrity MasterChef, the competition intensified as the Top 5 finalists were revealed. While Tejasswi Prakash and Gaurav Khanna had already secured their spots, Nikki Tamboli, Faisu, Rajiv Adatia, and Archana Gautam faced the high-pressure Black Apron Challenge. The task was to replicate Chef Vikas Khanna’s signature Egg Matcha cheesecake—one of the toughest challenges of the season.

As the competition progressed, Archana Gautam found herself struggling to perfect the cheesecake, eventually breaking down in tears. However, Chefs Vikas Khanna and Ranveer Brar encouraged her to push through. After a tense round of judging, the golden aprons were handed to the top contestants—Nikki, Rajiv, and finally, Faisu, marking Archana’s elimination from the competition.

Archana became emotional upon hearing the results. Farah Khan praised her energy, calling her the ‘life of the show.’ “Archana, you have been the soul of Celebrity MasterChef. No matter what, your presence has made this season special,” Farah expressed warmly. Chef Ranveer Brar echoed similar sentiments, admiring Archana’s spirited nature, saying, “Laughing at others is easy, but laughing with others and even at oneself takes true courage.”

In the latest promo of Celebrity MasterChef, Gaurav Khanna steals the show as the judges evaluate his exquisite dessert. His dish impresses Ranveer Brar, Farah Khan, and Vikas Khanna not just with its taste but also with its stunning presentation. Served in a wine glass, Gaurav elegantly pours syrup over the dessert, creating a mesmerizing visual that leaves the judges in awe. His creativity and execution earn him high praise, making him a strong contender for the title. With such an outstanding performance, Gaurav proves he has what it takes to reach the finale and possibly win the competition.
