The Bigg Boss 19 house witnessed a surprising turn of events as Gaurav Khanna, winner of Celebrity MasterChef India, finally took on kitchen duties, a role he had been avoiding for weeks. This development sparked amusement and excitement among his fellow contestants, particularly Abhishek Bajaj, who played a key role in encouraging Khanna to embrace the culinary challenge.
Khanna, known for his reluctance to cook, had previously stated that preparing Indian meals wasn't his forte, despite his MasterChef title. This led to both criticism and curiosity from viewers, with many playfully urging him to showcase his cooking skills.
The situation came to a head this week under the captaincy of Mridul Tiwari. Abhishek Bajaj playfully nudged Khanna, remarking, "Gaurav bhai agar khana nahi banae to maza nahi ayega [It won't be fun if Gaurav bro does not cook],". Khanna responded with playful indignation, signaling his displeasure but ultimately relenting. He retorted to Bajaj, “Aage se mere se puch lia kar yeh sab, samjhe? [Ask me beforehand next time, understood?]".
The housemates reacted with amusement and admiration. Malti Chahar cheered, "Are waah! GK in the kitchen," as Khanna kneaded dough. Pranit More observed, "Arey, wo trigger ho gaye na [He is triggered now]," while Bajaj admitted both relief and exasperation, stating, "Unko kitchen me dalna ta mujhe... 10 hafte se woh avoid kar rhe hain kitchen [I wanted him in the kitchen, he has been avoiding kitchen duties for 10 weeks]".
Even Captain Tiwari joined in on the fun, teasing, "Guys, bakhoobi apna kaam kar rhe hain kitchen mein. Kya aap pehechaan rahe hain iss khoobsurat se chehre ko? [Guys, he has been working seamlessly in the kitchen. Can you identify this beautiful face?]". Bajaj summed up the moment perfectly, exclaiming, "Maza aa gya. Ab maza aega [This is fun. It will be fun]".
While Khanna agreed to cook under Mridul Tiwari's captaincy, he reportedly disliked being pressured by Bajaj. He made it clear to Bajaj that he should be consulted beforehand in the future. Despite this, Khanna gracefully accepted the kitchen duty, a move that might benefit Tiwari's captaincy and potentially gain More's trust. However, More seemed unhappy with Bajaj's actions, which could alter the dynamics within the house.
Khanna's entry into the kitchen follows a previous argument with housemates Kunickaa Sadanand, Neelam Giri, and Baseer Ali over washing utensils. The dispute began when Khanna refused to wash a spoon, leading to suggestions that he should be removed from kitchen duty. Baseer Ali even made a comment about Khanna's age, questioning if that was the reason he couldn't wash the dishes. This sparked outrage among fans, who criticized Baseer for "age-shaming" Khanna.
Abhishek Bajaj, born on October 24, 1992, is an Indian actor who began his career as a model before transitioning to television and film. He is known for his roles in Student of the Year 2, Chandigarh Kare Aashiqui, and Babli Bouncer. He entered Bigg Boss 19 with the intention of exploring something new, feeling that the reality show would provide a change from his established acting career.
Khanna's foray into the kitchen has not only delighted housemates and fans but also added a fresh layer of drama and entertainment to Bigg Boss 19, leaving viewers eager to see how this playful kitchen episode will influence the house dynamics and alliances.
