Actress Tejasswi Prakash has been on a roll on the stage of Celebrity Masterchef. Along with many praises and ‘spoon taps’ from the judges, Tejasswi also won chef Ranveer Brar’s famous knife which he hands out to one contestant every season. Tejasswi has also had her emotional moments on the show. In the latest episode, once again Tejasswi Prakash will get teary-eyed recalling her mother’s struggles bringing her up all alone. The Holi Special episode shows the contestants joined by their one family member, and Tejasswi’s mother joined her for the latest challenge.

During a candid interaction with Farah Khan and Chef Ranveer Brar, Tejasswi spoke about her mother emotionally and shared the struggles she has been through. She said, “My father used to work in Jeddah, so he was always in Saudi. My mother has brought us up all alone, and it’s very difficult raising two kids, especially when one of them is a girl. When we went through financial crunch, she would go door to door to sell policies.”

Tejasswi’s mother also added, “There was no money at that time, so what could I do? She has always been very supportive and would assure me that something would happen. I have even sold onions when needed.” Tejasswi continued, “Once I told my mother that I wanted a car, so she mortgaged her bangles.” Her mom added, “I sold small things, and made sure she got the car. It was a second-hand car.” Tejasswi Prakash added, “I came home and saw her hands, and asked her where were the bangles. It sounds filmy, but she did that, and I was like we will go and get them back right now. That car saw everything.”

Tejasswi shared, “I was getting paid Rs 5000 for two days for walking in a fashion show and I gave that money to her.” Later, Tejasswi’s mother revealed how the actor will take care of her younger brother when she was out selling policies. She called her daughter a winner and shared how she was proud of her.
