Celebrity Masterchef: Farah Khan reveals her mother-in-law never got her food; says ‘They are Mangaloreans and need coconut in everything’

In the latest episode of Celebrity Masterchef, actors Hina Khan and Rocky Jaiswal made a special appearance as celebrity guests. The couple was on the show to finalize their wedding menu. During their conversation, filmmaker and choreographer Farah Khan made a humorous revelation about her mother-in-law’s cooking habits.
When Rocky Jaiswal asked Farah what her mother-in-law fed her, she candidly replied, “Meri saas ne mujhe aaj tak kuch nahi khilaya hai. She gets food for her son. Now she will watch this episode and call me and say, ‘Tereko mera khana achha nahi lagta hai isiliye main nahi khilati.’”

Farah went on to explain that her in-laws are Mangaloreans, and their cuisine heavily features coconut-based dishes. “They like my chicken. So she will get idiyappams, coconut-based chicken, idli chutney, and all those things—but not for me.”
Curious about the dynamics of their food preferences, Rocky asked if her mother-in-law liked the dishes Farah cooked. Farah replied, “She might like it. Because I get them food… paya, yakhni pulao.” On being asked if her mother-in-law enjoyed her famous roast chicken, Farah humorously responded, “I don’t think so. They are Mangaloreans and need coconut in everything.”

Rocky took the opportunity to send a message directly to Farah’s mother-in-law, saying, “I request Farah Ma’am’s mother-in-law to please get food for her.” Amused by his plea, Farah wholeheartedly agreed.
The lighthearted exchange added an entertaining twist to the episode, showcasing Farah’s signature wit. As fans enjoyed the playful banter, it also highlighted the cultural differences in food habits within families, making the episode both fun and relatable.
