Master Chef India's Akshay Kumar

Master Chef India's Akshay Kumar

Akshay plays a pivotal role as host of MasterChef India. He forms an integral part of each and every episode. Somewhere setting the task… throwing the “Akshay Challenge” a part of the Saturday Play out and he is always there when a contestant is being eliminated on the Sunday Episode.
The cynosure of all eyes!

Mentor: The man who lights up hope for every contestant. Who dares them to dream…. Is the shoulder for the tough times and has a distinct emotional connect with their journey as a whole. He pushes them hard to go for excellence… appreciates dedication and hard work.
The proverbial friend, philosopher and guide!

Surprise Element: He brings in the twists, turns and tweaks to the MC Kitchen. Be it with a task or a surprise guest. When AK is there no one can be sure of how things will pan out. His presence brings in blend of nervous energy and an exciting time waiting to begin.
The Charming game changer!

The Man behind the Super Star: Someone who is liked by the contestants as “the special one”… who has formed different bonds with different contestants… He is the son to the 60 year old Auntyji never had; the bade bhaiya of a young bride; the friend of a guy in his mid 30s; the crush of a 22 year old girl.

They just love it when AK tastes and appreciates their food… It’s beyond the technicalities and the eliminations. Almost like the India Vs Pakistan Match… India can lose the World Cup, but they will win everyone’s hearts if they beat Pakistan.

Similarly, pleasing Akshay’s taste buds is the most cherished prize for all contestants.
