Reem Shaikh, on her return to Laughter Chef 2: 'I'm here not just to cook, but...'

COLORS' Laughter Chefs Unlimited Entertainment is all set to spice things up with the return of its original trio — Nia Sharma, Aly Goni, and Reem Shaikh. Their re-entry brings a fresh twist to the show, turning a new page in the culinary chaos.

The upcoming episode will feature their dramatic comeback, complete with intense lighting, swirling leaves, and signature Bollywood-style background music — a tribute to classic family drama scenes. With Reem Shaikh rejoining the team, the original gang is complete, and the competition will heat up even further. Will their old bond reignite or has too much changed?

Reem shared her excitement about returning, saying, "Coming back to this kitchen feels like coming home — but also like stepping into a battlefield. I didn't realize how much I'd miss the madness until I left. Everyone kept asking me about my experience, and watching how much the audience loved the show — the laughter, the energy, the chaos — made it clear I had to come back. This time, I'm not just here to cook. I'm here to reclaim my space."

Just days earlier, Karan Kundrra also returned to Laughter Chefs 2 after Abdu Rozik exited the show due to other professional obligations. Fans speculated Karan's appearance would be a brief cameo, but in an exclusive chat with India Forums, he clarified that he's back for good. He explained that it wasn't a matter of saying yes or no — he simply had prior commitments to fulfill. Now that those are completed, he's fully back in the kitchen.

With the return of these beloved stars, Laughter Chefs 2 is turning up the heat — and viewers can expect plenty more drama, fun, and unforgettable moments in the episodes ahead.
