Celebrity MasterChef: Farah Khan Faces Backlash

Celebrity MasterChef India judge Farah Khan is facing criticism for her reaction to contestant Gaurav Khanna's color blindness, with fans calling her insensitive and dismissive. Gaurav, an actor from the popular show Anupamaa, had opened up about his condition earlier in the show, but when he struggled with presentation and described a jacket as being between orange and red, Farah exclaimed "What rubbish!"

The incident occurred during a challenge where Gaurav was unable to taste a dish due to his vegetarian diet and had to rely on others' feedback to describe it. When he explained his color blindness, judge Vikas Khanna was shocked, and Farah questioned his ability to see the color of Vikas' jacket. Fans have taken to social media to express their outrage, calling for the judges to be more empathetic and understanding towards Gaurav's condition.

This is not the first time Farah Khan has faced criticism for her humor, with some saying it's not funny. The show, which premiered on January 27, features TV celebrities showcasing their culinary skills, with popular chefs Ranveer Brar and Vikas Khanna as judges, along with Farah Khan. The controversy has sparked a debate about sensitivity and empathy towards individuals with disabilities, with many calling for more awareness and understanding.

As the show continues, it remains to be seen how the judges will respond to the backlash and whether they will make amends with Gaurav and his fans. The incident has highlighted the importance of empathy and understanding in the entertainment industry, and the need for celebrities to be more considerate and sensitive towards individuals with disabilities.
