Gaurav Khanna reveals he doesn’t know how to cook Indian cuisine
The recent episodes of Bigg Boss 19 featured the feud between Kunickaa Sadanand and Gaurav Khanna. The fight started when Gaurav wanted Ashnoor Kaur as the captain over Kunickaa. However, the dynamics inside the Bigg Boss house changed drastically after Kunickaa became the first captain. As a punishment, she assigned Gaurav to the kitchen duties. However, the Celebrity MasterChef winner refused to take charge and revealed that he doesn’t know how to cook Indian cuisine. Later, Kunickaa changed his duty and assigned him to clean the washrooms along with Zeishaan Quadri. He was quoted as saying:
“Ma’am, I won’t make it. I anyways don’t know how to make Indian food, then housemates will have to be hungry all day.”
Gaurav later discussed the matter with his fellow contestant, Mridul Tiwari. He shared that he didn’t like to cook food and didn’t know how to cook Indian cuisine. He mentioned that people saw his cooking skills on the show Celebrity MasterChef, and now they want to see his personality on Bigg Boss 19. In his words:
“Mera 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.”
