Rajshri Thakur and Aashka Goradia on Sony TV’s Sanjeev Kapoor Ke Kitchen Khiladi

The stage was set for two queens to battle it out with their culinary skills. Yes, the beautiful ladies Rajshri Thakur and Aaskha Goradia yesterday challenged each other in the grounds of Sony Entertainment Television’s Sanjeev Kapoor Ke Kitchen Khiladi (SOL Productions).

The actors, who play queens on the popular historical drama Bharat Ka Veer Putra-Maharana Pratap (Contiloe Telefilms), got together to cook a special Diwali episode. Giving them company was their on-screen husband Shakti Anand who also tried his hands at cooking.

A source informs us, “Rajshri came in full tashan (style) announcing that she will win the competition. Aashka too was very confident of her cooking skills. It was a very close competition.”

Rajshri tried to impress judge Sanjeev Kapoor with her special shahi halwa whereas Aashka made dahi ki dariya mein alu (potato curry with dahi). After enjoying the yummy dishes, Sanjeev finally announced Aashka as the winner.

Shakti too was lured by the cooking experience as he tried his hands on making an omelette which Sanjeev Kapoor helped him with. The master chef also made the trio try their hands on flapping the omelette in a very unique way.

Speaking on her experience, Rajshri said, “It was indeed real fun. I have always enjoyed cooking and the sooji halwa I tried yesterday was a very special recipe which was enjoyed by all.”

With the actors having a blast on the sets, we are sure the viewers will enjoy the episode too.

This Diwali special episode will be aired sometime during the festival.
