'Celebrity MasterChef': Tejasswi And Archana Get Into Explosive Argument: 'Thuk Ke Nahi Chatungi'

The first season of Celebrity MasterChef has already taken the Internet by storm ever since it aired on January 27, 2025. The show is hosted by MasterChef judges, Vikas Khanna and Ranveer Brar, and film director and choreographer, Farah Khan.

Archana Gautam breaks down at not being selected, Tejasswi Prakash slams back

In a new promo for Celebrity MasterChef, Archana Gautam and Tejasswi Prakash find themselves in the midst of a heated argument that has left fans buzzing. The growing tension between the two contestants adds to the show's already intense drama, keeping viewers on edge. The confrontation between the former Bigg Boss contestants began with Archana feeling insulted after none of her co-contestants picked her for the team tasks assigned to them. After the show’s host, Farah Khan, asked if she was not chosen by anyone. When Farah questioned, ‘Archana, tereko kisi ne choose nahi kiya?’, Archana looked visibly hurt when she responded:

“Insult feel hota hai.”

Things got heated when her co-contestant, Tejasswi Prakash, responded to Archana’s emotional reaction to not being selected. Tejasswi took a jab at Archana, and said:

“Tumhe unhone bhi select nahi kiya tha."

Tejasswi’s remark further heated things up, striking a nerve with Archana. Her anger was evident in her fiery response, which left the judges, including Farah Khan, Vikas Khanna and Ranveer Brar, in stunned silence. Archana responded by saying:

“Main thook ke nahi chaatungi, Tejasswi. Samjhi tum?”

The makers of the show, Sony TV, shared the promo of the show featuring the heated exchange between Archana and Tejasswi. The caption of the promo video read:

“Khana se zyada toh mahaul garam ho gaya hai.”

Netizens react to the heated exchange

Not long after the promo was released on social media, it took the Internet by storm. Fans were left divided, with some siding with Archana and some siding with Tejasswi. One fan supported Archana by commenting: “Why is everyone so biased with Archu only, because she is not from the Industry & any groups?”, another commented, “She's frustrated cos no one chooses her”. One netizen sided with Tejasswi in this matter, saying, “Archana should learn how to talk, teja is totally focused on cooking ye faltu ka drama matt karo.” Another user criticised Archana for her language and wrote, “Girl stopp. Archna should know the standard of the show and mind her language bro.”

What to expect from the latest episode of Celebrity MasterChef?

Other than the heated exchange, the latest episode of Celebrity MasterChef promises even more drama as the contestants get into a culinary challenge in a five-star hotel setting. It is now a matter of waiting to see which contestants manage to surpass the challenges and get to the other side. The show is streaming from Monday to Friday at 8 pm on Sony LIV.
