Week 13 - 17 November - Page 4

I don't know but Nidhi looks genuine to me for some reason, may be I am wrong but yes I think she is genuine

Actually for me everyone other than MD and Suraj are so so, for me more than Nidhi I think there is much support for Rukhsar from everywhere. If you ask me toh Rukhsar is good with Kashmiri food but as someone said she was messing and struggling in the cook along challenge, so may be we should wait for sometime.

100%!!!!!

We all need to understand that these contestants are humans too! If they were all so proficient in every cooking technique, nuances, ingredients, presentation skills etc. they wouldn't have come to Masterchef. The show is a learning curve for all of them. Some days they are gonna succeed, some days they are gonna fail but the learning process should never stop.

Ok, but even if agree that the judges are biased towards Nidhi. How is it Nidhi's fault?

Nobody hates Nidhi personally. Nobody is badmouthing her. We’re critical of her dishes and her staying in spite of not cooking very well. We’re annoyed at the comments she gets. So the reason some of us said we’d celebrate if she was eliminated is because the favouritism would hopefully stop.
None of us know her personally and don’t wish her any ill

Chef Garima made her dish sound quite tough, but it wasn’t all that hard (as a viewer). Last year during the cook along Garima spoke so fast, but yesterday her pace was fine.

I think Rukhsar was very overwhelmed and left the flame on high and burnt her milk. I’m glad she could use her immunity pin mid challenge. Though I think that shouldn’t be allowed. Use it before the challenge or not at all.

Had it not been for Shubhojit spilling the ice cream, his dish received quite some praise for his flavours. Only balance wasn’t there.
Sad to see him go, but there can only be one winner.

I think it was harder than that chatni, btw for me toh both the dishes were hard to make but this was harder because they were cooking so they were stressed I guess.

Last year during the cook along Garima spoke so fast, but yesterday her pace was fine.

I think either they told her to be little slow or may be she purposefully did that, I think because they were not familiar with her, her pace, what she likes/dislikes and most importantly last year the competition was for top 3 finalists whereas this time they have not come along that far.

Also I liked the last years pace, today she was waiting for everyone, Idk why.

If Rukhsar would not have used that pin toh this time she would have been eliminated, just my thought.

Tbh, when it was mentioned Garima was cooking a dessert, my automatic hunch was that Kriti will be salvaged. And, I feel like she's the mild version of Priyanka who will safeguard herself via the dessert route. She's got wild ideas but why implement 'em in desserts ONLY? 🤦‍♀️

When Subojit heated the jam, I started to feel that's when his downfall began. The ice-cream spill killed it & one can sense that he's the one to be ousted. Nambi attempting to be the executive chef from the balcony was super cringe. Her voice & fake Hindi is super irksome, man. Subojit should've flat out snubbed her comments and stick to his game. He was doing so well but, alas, it's reality show & a blunder can cause severe aftermath (partially also from the Thursday's stress which seemed to gotten carried over, IMO).

When Nidhi was praising her kanombla in the commentary clip, Garima bursted her bubble on point lol. 😂 🤣 I loved that moment for some reason.

When all four chefs came to Kriti's counter, Vikas immediately commented but Ranvir cut him in & elaborated the criticism as some cooking pundit. Can Ranvir stop overpowering Vikas for once?

Overall, Nidhi's dish wasn't that bad looking &, for a change, a good break from the typical Himachali average stuff that she cooks & presents. Just the caramelization and the starch cooking could've been improved which is comprehensive.

On a closer look, one of Kriti's kanombla's was slightly bigger in comparison to Garima's dish. Subojit's dish visually looked okay but the ice cream proportion killed it due to Nambi's annoyance & Subojit getting distracted. Pooja sounded biased, IMO, towards the dish whereas at least, Vikas commented as to how to improve on the crunch at least.

Tbh, I kinda started to root for Rukhsar but since it was limited to Kashmiri food, I started to feel that she was limited even though she is a humble contestant & not sneaky unlike Nambi. Yesterday's cook-along kinda got her distracted when she wasn't paying attention over the milk before it came out of vessel. Had it not been for the immunity pin, she would've been out instead of Subojit but she make a smart move.

Actually I am not rooting for anyone, till now Suraj and MD are good although I want a female contestant to win this time, it has been two season, but I don't know I am not liking anyone much.

Actually can Rukhsar cook veg for once, leave veg, can she even cook something other than Kashmiri food just for once, it has been looong since she has cooked anything other than Kashmiri can she come out of that?

OK so I never said why I am not able to connect with Rukhsar because I did not know how to put my thoughts in words, I hope I will not hurt anyone, I am sorry in advance.

No offence but if you remember her comment that she did baking for the first time and Kashmir has the problem of power supply, I am sorry and no offence to Kashmiri people but I don't know I couldn't believe her, I mean seriously she wants to open a cooking school but has 0 knowledge of baking, has never baked anything in her life but still perfectly baked that dish in that episode, is it even possible? I am not a fan of Shantha, but Shantha came from a village (it was a village only naa?) but still she baked, she accepted that she has learnt from internet and other sources, even there village had the problem of electricity/cable/something like that (her husband said in the family episode) but she never said that she never baked before.

If she would have said that baking is not her speciality or she is not good at it toh at least one could believe her, but never baking anything sounds quite unbelievable.

Humble or not I don't know, but she talks so negative, we all know that comment when MD won and she said something else before which I don't remember right now.

Today was clearly her luck, otherwise she would have been in place of subojit, today was the dish which was totally different from what she has been making/cooking from past few days/weeks, today chef Garima was so slow if we compare to the last season, yet she was so overwhelmed, just imagine if she would have been on that same pace toh what would have happened.

accha, I remembered something, just wanted to share my thoughts on this.

Exactly, she is a milder version, Priyanka toh was I don't know what, I know she has a huge fanbase on YT and other platforms but she use to take so many things but most of the time could not bring the end products on table, chefs warned her but she never paid attention, however for some reason I feel that after few weeks even chefs did not pay so much attention on her.

Moreover she had a bad habit of speaking anything without even thinking, that statement "aaj toh had hi kar di judges ne (today the judges crossed all the limits)" and there was no need to say such things when all the contestants were just given a challenge, this is just my POV that no matter whatever we say, we may say that this is a cooking show and all, but how a person behaves also counts, what we do also counts, this happens everywhere, even in school the teachers make an impression and sometimes may act biased

Who says like this in front of the camera, even when you feel something toh bhi you will not say because you know that judges can clearly see what is happening and what has happened.

Nambi attempting to be the executive chef from the balcony was super cringe. Her voice & fake Hindi is super irksome, man. Subojit should've flat out snubbed her comments and stick to his game. He was doing so well but, alas, it's reality show & a blunder can cause severe aftermath (partially also from the Thursday's stress which seemed to gotten carried over, IMO).

Exactly, she said something and he started listening to her and that blunder happened. Was she not aware that he also had to listen and follow chef Garima, why was she speaking, she should have just kept quite.

When Nidhi was praising her kanombla in the commentary clip, Garima bursted her bubble on point lol. 😂 🤣 I loved that moment for some reason.

oh yes, I remember that "mai bohot khush hoon ki mera kanombla perfectly nikal gaya hai"

Chef Garima "mujhe dikhaiye, ye even nahi hai" I think she even pointed out something on the colours.

When all four chefs came to Kriti's counter, Vikas immediately commented but Ranvir cut him in & elaborated the criticism as some cooking pundit. Can Ranvir stop overpowering Vikas for once?

In the last season I felt that may be it is just happening, but even same thing in this season, why he has to speak so many things, I mean why he has to show that he has soooo much knowledge, we know that, no need to tell again and again. Plus how he behaves with those contestants jinko he doesn't like, he either starts ignoring them or starts just kind of demotivating them.

Subojit's dish visually looked okay but the ice cream proportion killed it due to Nambi's annoyance & Subojit getting distracted.

Yes, it was salty chef Garima said.

Pooja sounded biased, IMO, towards the dish whereas at least, Vikas commented as to how to improve on the crunch at least.

We should be happy that she at least spoke something.
