Chef Harpal reveals what made Elvish Yadav & Karan Kundrra win Laughter Chefs 2: 'Duo were perfect..'

Chef Harpal Singh Sokhi recently took to Instagram to share a key moment from the finale of Laughter Chefs 2, where actor Karan Kundrra and YouTuber Elvish Yadav emerged as winners. The chef posted a video featuring the duo's winning dish, titled Croissant Fruit Fountain, and included a detailed caption reflecting on their performance and the broader impact of the show.

Karan and Elvish, who were paired as a team, demonstrated a complementary partnership throughout the competition. Karan handled most of the cooking responsibilities, while Elvish provided consistent support, adapting to various roles as needed. In his post, Chef Harpal described their teamwork as an example of effective collaboration. He wrote, “The duo were a perfect team one who understood cooking and one who was the perfect support system. It is a perfect management principle of partners filling up gaps wherever required and Elvish did that at all the time. He bagged many titles @sleepman #dhabekachotu but was always there when needed.”

The dish itself combined elements of fun and presentation, which fit the tone of the show, a format that blends cooking with humor and celebrity dynamics. Both Karan and Elvish leaned into their strengths, with Karan bringing a structured approach to cooking and Elvish engaging in on-the-spot improvisation. Their collaboration was central to their win.

Chef Harpal also took the opportunity to speak about the wider influence of Laughter Chefs in terms of audience engagement and television viewership. In a time when traditional television faces stiff competition from digital platforms, he credited the show with drawing people back to scheduled programming. He wrote, “Here’s to the entire team of #laughterchefs who created history in the world, bought people back to watching TV non-stop for hours, thereby lifting the spirits of cable distribution/set top box etc, thereby bringing cheers to what we would always hear #tvaabmargaya ..no mean task this one.”

He concluded with recognition for the production and broadcasting teams behind the show. “Cheers to the team of people who put this together @optimystixmedia, finally to the team of @colors who left some Wanderers on the floor to fetch their own fame and they lived upto the belief of #teamcolors,” he added. His closing line, “With this we as team of #laughterchefs believe that #picturesbhibakihaymeraydost, we will be back soon,” suggested that another season or related content may already be in the works.

This post not only highlighted the winning dish and team effort but also gave viewers a behind-the-scenes sense of how the show made a cultural and industry impact.
