Actor Karan Kundrra was last seen on Laughter Chefs Season 1, where he was paired with Arjun Bijlani. When he didn’t return for Season 2, many wondered why. Now, Karan has replaced Abdu Rozik on Laughter Chefs Season 2. In an exclusive conversation with SCREEN, the actor revealed why he initially chose not to sign up for Laughter Chefs 2 and shared how he and his partner, Tejasswi Prakash, are juggling multiple cooking reality shows on TV throughout the week.
Sharing why he didn’t join the new season of Laughter Chefs from the start, Karan said, “It doesn’t feel like there was a gap of 2-3 months. Dates were an issue. There was no planning for the first season either. We were just supposed to shoot for 8 days, then it became big and went on and on. So, it was never a question of yes or no, but of when. The second or third day that I came back from Iceland, we started shooting.”

Karan Kundrra also spoke about the new cast and who is he missing from the old gang. The actor said, “I am missing everybody, Arjun, Aly, Nia, Reem, and Jannat. We spent so much time together and created such a legacy for ourselves. It was such a great time. The new people are also fantastic. They have cute chemistry. I did miss the show because going on Laughter Chefs is not like going on a set. We have fun. Even if we shoot for 14-15 hours, we don’t feel tired. When we pack up and sit in our cars at 12 or 1 am is when we realize how tired we are. Before that, it’s all good. It is such a fun show that it doesn’t feel like work. As soon as my dates got cleared and I was back in India, I was glad to join them.”
Talking about co-contestant Elvish Yadav, Karan added, “Elvish is a great guy, very hardworking. We have great chemistry and I wasn’t surprised to have so much fun. Earlier, Arjun used to do everything, so I could relax. But now with Elvish, I will have to be the older brother. With the new people, I will have to create new relationships, but that is happening very smoothly. I am very happy with the casting, but I want the older ones also to return.”
Finally, Karan Kundrra shared that he is happiest about Tejasswi Prakash participating in Celebrity MasterChef. “Monday to Friday, Teja is managing the cooking front on TV and Saturday-Sunday I am doing so. Both of us are massive foodies. Right now she is sitting in front of me asking me what she should cook. I don’t cook much and that is better. Everything she is doing after the show is great. I am very happy.
Laughter Chefs Season 2 is serving just the right ‘dinner-tainment’ to its viewers every Saturday and Sunday at 9;30 pm on Colors TV.
