Welcoming the season of harvest, Shilpa Shetty beautifully captured the sentiment, saying, “At this time, the whole of India is engulfed in the colours of harvest and festivals. Sometimes Pongal, sometimes Sankranti, sometimes Bihu, sometimes Lohri. The names may be different, but the aim is one, happiness.”
Sharing her experience of being part of the Harvest Special, Shilpa added, “The Harvest Special episode of MasterChef India felt truly special to me. Every dish narrated a unique story, every flavour paid homage to our rich culinary traditions, and together they came alive as a celebration of Indian talent that is stepping forward with confidence, creativity, and fearlessness on a global stage.”

Ranveer Brar talks about his MasterChef experience
Speaking about the show’s impact, Ranveer Brar highlighted how cooking at home was once largely overlooked. “Pre-MasterChef, if you were cooking at home, you weren`t respected or recognised for it. I think that the beacon of respect and recognition to everyday cooking came through MasterChef,” he said. According to Brar, the show transformed home cooking into something far more significant. “It catapulted into something bigger, like bringing an entire industry together, the whole food media ecosystem, whether it is smaller channels doing stronger food media or food media on social media,” he added.
Brar further pointed out how deeply the show is woven into today’s food content landscape. “A lot of food creators, I`d say 50 per cent of them would be associated with MasterChef in some form. It`s given recognition and respect to the home kitchen,” he said.
