Bigg Boss 19 has been serving drama since day one. Whether it is contestants fighting over food or Tanya Mittal<\/a>\u2019s statements, fans appear thoroughly entertained. Recently, television actor Gaurav Khanna<\/a>, who also won Celebrity MasterChef <\/a>earlier this year, claimed that he does not know how to cook Indian food and therefore would not be making meals in the house. However, his statement has ignited speculation about Celebrity MasterChef being scripted.<\/p>\n

The dynamics in the house shifted after actor Kunickaa Sadanand was chosen as captain by Tanya Mittal following an intriguing task. Kunickaa, who had a feud with Gaurav for not voting for her to become captain, punished him by assigning him kitchen duty. However, Gaurav firmly refused, saying, \u201cMa\u2019am, I won\u2019t make it. I anyways don\u2019t know how to make Indian food, then housemates will have to be hungry all day.\u201d Following this, Kunickaa changed his duty to cleaning washrooms with Zeishaan Quadri.<\/p>\n

Later, Gaurav was seen discussing the issue with Mridul Tiwari, once again refusing to cook. He said, \u201cMera mann nahi hai aur mujhe aata bhi nahi Indian khaana banana. Maine voh show (Celebrity MasterChef), iss show ke liye thodi kiya hai. Ab tumhe kahen ki actor ho acting karo sara din. Voh logon ne dekhliya mujhe cooking kitna aata hai. Iss show main unko meri personality dekhni hai (I don\u2019t feel like it, and I don\u2019t even know how to cook Indian food. I didn\u2019t do that show (Celebrity MasterChef) just for this show. Now, if someone tells you that you\u2019re an actor, so act the whole day. It\u2019s the same thing. People have already seen how much I know about cooking. In this show, they\u2019re supposed to see my personality).\u201d<\/p>\n

Internet thinks Celebrity MasterChef was scripted<\/p>\n

A clip from the show surfaced on the internet. One comment read, \u201cOh man, does that mean MasterChef was scripted? Gaurav is scared that if people eat his food, they\u2019ll figure out that he actually doesn\u2019t know how to cook well.\u201d Another commented, \u201cOk, but who’s asking him to only cook Indian cuisine? Cook something else then.\u201d Another wrote, \u201cNow I am sure Masterchef is scripted.\u201d<\/p>\n

Another comment read, \u201cBeing the current celebrity MasterChef title holder, he is sceptical of putting himself up for judgment by the HMs. He doesn’t want anyone to question his win by his present cooking skills.\u201d<\/p>\n

In April, Gaurav emerged as the winner of the first season of Celebrity MasterChef after defeating Nikki Tamboli and Tejasswi Prakash. The show was judged by Chef Vikas Khanna, Chef Ranveer Brar, and filmmaker Farah Khan.<\/p>\n
