It has been reported that Vikash has filed a complaint against Farah Khan for hurting religious sentiments through his lawyer Advocate Ali Kashaf Khan Deshmukh, as per current reports. For the unversed, the issue fueled up when Farah Khan referred to Holi (festival of colours) as the ‘festival of chapris’ which did not go down well with Fhatak. Hence, the latter decided to take legal action against Khan and sought the help of Mumbai police. My client states that this comment made by Farah Khan has insulted the religious sentiments of Hindus. The use of the term 'Chhapris' to describe a sacred festival is highly inappropriate and has the potential to cause communal tension,” the lawyer reportedly told NDTV. If these reports are to be believed the case against Khan has filed under multiple sections like 196, 299, 302, and 353 under the Indian Penal Code.

In the excerpt shared in this report, it has been revealed that through this, the complainant is seeking justice under the provisions of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) and has requested the esteemed office to initiate legal action against Khan for her irresponsible and inflammatory statements. Meanwhile, a response is awaited from Farah Khan’s legal team.

Speaking of the show, Celebrity MasterChef currently airs of Sony Entertainment Television and features a culinary showdown between popular celebs from television industry like Gaurav Khanna, Tejasswi Prakash, Dipika Kakar, among others with Farah Khan as the host and chefs Vikas Khanna and Ranveer Brar as the judges.
