The judges have taken some decisions which we disagree with.

Lets list them down here.

Each one is entitled to an opinion.

1- when Khokhu was eliminated, they said her chutney wasn't sour. I've had meethi chutney... So found that strange. They could've said something like it tasted bad.

2- when Happy was eliminated instead of Ripu. Ripu made kadhi with chicken. Nothing new in his idea and a strange combination.

3- when Devyani was eliminated instead of Doyel. Sometimes they judge presentation, sometimes taste. And honestly with flavours mixed with other flavours I don't understand how you can actually taste individual flavours.

4- when Navneet and Ripu were both age in the international dish round. Usually they only sve 1.

5- when Ripus Italian dish was chosen over Aditis

6- in the wild card challenge Sachins dish seemed strange. Pasta with kokum curry? It just didn't seem right.

7- wild card entry 2 - Aditis dish had more positive comments, only she had less mousse- not a grave error as opposed to Devyanis boondi that was not sweet enough

Yes ,i too have felt many a times they take the wrong decisions when they themselves would have said somethg else prior to decision announcement.and thats y sadly we are discussing dramas rather than food or cooking skills of contestants. I agree with khoku's chutney, wonder wht decision was that.They were finding reasons to eliminate two people in a week.

Aditis casata had equally gud comments as Devyani and they could have done the last round with both of them and another contestant if that was the rule. But am happy Aditi was not part of the last drama. She is as Sanjeev Kapoor mentioned a 'Grace'.😊

Devyani-Doyal round the lesser said would be better. Doyal poured all layers like dumping in the bin.

Most imp ,what i felt was when the show started ,there were 12 contestants and i am sure most of u will agree Navneet and Sachin were the weakest and now they are part of 6. Sachin is very humble,however his cooking wasnt upto the mark most of the times. This shows Luck matters the most.

Show could be renamed as 'Luck by chance'.😕

Other than giving wrong decisions, the judges also give confusing tips to the contestants..

When Khoku was eliminated - they made her so confused to get the khatta flavor in her chutney..

In the casatta round, they simply jumped the gun and praised Aditi to be before time.. and the poor girl spoilt her chikki after being a little carried over after that..

Today, the judges again misguided Devyani by asking her to do something other than omlettes and then later said that the side is what was weak while the omlette based dish was perfect...

And lesser I say about the Chowpati round the better - on how the blue team was unfairly helped and nothing came red team's way!!

Another addition to my list is today's decision...

Devyanis main dish was brilliant, no flaws.

Her desert was less sweet - but it was an innovation.

Yasmin cooked Anda curry- nothing new in that... And her rice wasn't even cooked well. Now if I couldn't cook rice well, I don't see how you deserve to progress in the show!

Strange decisions all through the season.

Honestly, at the moment the one person who I truly believe deserves the win is Nisha

Ill state why not others-

Navneet - clearly a weak contestant, is lucky to be saved time and again. None of his dishes have innovation.

Sachin - I strongly believe had it not been for Navneets help, he would never have been able to make the pasta. His first 2 dishes were thrown in the bin. That says enough.

Doyel - After the Gadbad Falooda, I don't think she should even be in the competition. Her Thai dish seemed weird too.

Yasmin - formula cooking. Sticks to biryanis, kormas, very typical desi gravies. Nothing new. And that she is still in the competition today baffles me.

Ripu- judges favourite. He is innovative to an extent, but almost all his dishes have gratin after cheese on top, at least lately.

There've been times I thought he didn't deserve to be safe. Especially when Happy left.

Nisha - not one time that I remember her dish being criticised. She's made variety. From grilling to poaching she's shown she can do it all. Heck she even cooked gravy in a bamboo!

Hence I feel Nisha truly deserves to win

Nisha comes across as arogant and proud but maybe we are over judging.. some people are introvert.. don't know.. but agree going by food, the one reason strongly in her favour is.. she genuinely enjoys cooking and pushes her boundaries, quite like aditi..

The bamboo cooking bit..not sure if kunal meant it that gravy can't be done..but she did it..says a lot about her..

but then..man! her proud look 😆 irks me

This is my second reply to this post and am glad that u made this post today itself when the strangest decision has been made. After all the hungama of bringing the ex-contestants and making a mockery, they made Devyani the biggest fool. They praised her dish and skills and said negative remarks abt Yasmin's and finally declared yasmin as the winner. Ha ha what a joke!

I personally think they shd start public voting system too as thats the only funny thing thats left.If this is the way they take decisions, we can vote and decide without tasting the dish
