Life always gives big opportunities in the form of small hints!
The big move in Pankaj Bhadouria’s life came with a small step when she decided to leave her successful teaching career, spanning over 16 years, to enter India’s 1st televised cookery reality show – MasterChef India on Star Plus, the leading general entertainment channel.

And as they say, fortune favours the brave, Pankaj went on to become a worthy winner, and with it India’s first ever MasterChef.

The chief guests of the show were famous Bollywood actor Akshay Kumar, Ajay Chopra, executive chef at Goa Marriott Resort, and Kunal Kapur, executive chef at Leela Kempinski, Gurgaon.
