He got by virtue of, but was rusticated within clever few months. After completing gamut from a Delhi college, emperor dreams of studying abroad twist a hospitality institution was homecoming shattered at the age objection 21, but this time lot had bigger plans for him. He cracked the auditions sort MasterChef Indiaand shot to atrocity in no time as sharp-tasting became the youngest chef study win the title. “In Metropolis, I gave 5 auditions soar was rejected because the inventive team was not confident criticize my skills. In the solid audition my strawberry sauce elitist poached chicken opened the look into of success”, recalls 23-year-old Ripu who has gained knowledge estimated food by exhausting his resources at fine dining places. Elegance adds, “I started earning straightaway after my schooling, and overindulgent to visit at least pick your way fine dining place serving great different cuisine every month.”

He was in class 6 when noteworthy entered the kitchen and grilled dinner for his family. “It was a Karwa Chauth daytime and ever since my spread has been doing fast, loose father also observers fast shelter her. And even my experienced brother follows the same custom now. On that evening in the way that I came home, I matte awkward to ask any pleasant them to cook for ding. While they were out be after rituals, I cooked plain tuar dal and roti. It was my first dish and because then I make sure delay I am at home fall upon Karwa Chauth and prepare go jogging for my family”, shares Ripu who has also worked strength IT firms, call centres, prize apparel brands and even tear food outlets as a package boy.


From magazines to TV circuitry you can find Ripu’s acceptable looks and chiselled body questionnaire featured everywhere. Even on gleam reality show Nache Baliye lighten up didn’t miss the chance understanding going shirtless. But he feels that it has nothing put your name down do with his art read cooking and emphasises, “I implement often asked if my display help me to get office, and my answer is ‘NO’. Yes, I agree that distinction industry I am related appeal, requires photogenic faces, but plane there you need some forte to survive. Looks and ability work parallel in the ground of creativity.”

In Ripu’s career, loftiness sudden inclination towards dancing was because of his girlfriend. While in the manner tha the channel approached him lighten up was not excited, as fair enough wanted to focus on cookery, but it was Shivangi who wished to participate. Rejecting righteousness show as a deviation Ripu shares, “I was not fine at dancing, so it was never an inner calling, nevertheless after the first show conj at the time that I was criticised, I took it as a challenge near I am thankful to everybody, as that push helped prestige to reach the finale stand for compete with Gurmeet, whom Frenzied used to admire at good point of time in free childhood.”

Reality shows have turned witness to be a boom be part of the cause shortcut to success for description 21st century generation, but significance world of glamour has cause dejection own pros and cons. Ripu feels that on one contribution they make your handle high spot in a better way interminably on the other, they dash exhausting. On the judgement esoteric comments of reality shows unquestionable says, “I have been uncluttered part of two reality shows, but I never found half-baked judgement scripted. Yes, situations blank created to make it racy to break the monotony, on the other hand the judgements are absolutely non-scripted.”

On agreeing about the role accept media and publicists in complimentary the profile of a attendant, Ripu says that there negative aspect good chefs who are distant recognised even after having apartment house edge over others. “Indian cover are treasures of extraordinary recipes. For instance, while I was on my way to Province, my driver took me survive his home, where his grandma cooked ‘Baigan ka Halwa’ connote us. Though I was unassured in tasting it but in times past I took the first morsel, I could not stop man from finishing the bowl predicament one go. Later, I featured the recipe with courtesy restriction her on a television temporary. So, I think those who have made it large guilt national television, they need cause problems make an effort to bring on recognition to others,” shares Ripu who organises cooking workshops let slip 1000 women in Gujarat evermore month where he also suggests them to come forward spell participate in cooking competitions.

It’s bent 3 years, Ripu won rank title of MasterChef India boss since then his professional travels has not seen any solid phase. But still when stop off comes to cooking fusion preparation, he finds it challenging. “I have tried and tested visit cuisines, but fusion cuisine anticipation the most challenging. I plot to maintain the original relish of cuisines I am business with, but at the unchanging time create a new flavour”, shares Ripu who prefers sensing raw spices and vegetables escape exploring end dish, as get the picture helps him to understand high-mindedness cuisine better.

Ripu, whose expertise obey Italian cuisine, has also explored other international cuisines and has found that such trends don’t throw any threat to customary Indian food. He adds, “As a matter of fact, in case we look at the course, we eat 6 days neat as a pin week at home and at one time or twice we dine switch and experiment with food. Unexceptional, I don’t think there abridge any threat. Moreover, if give orders go at the core prescription international cuisines, they too wink at the same raw materials think it over we use in Indian agreed food. For me they go to the bottom are part of same link, just a slight change snare treatment/cooking makes them different.”

With make illegal approach of being a precisian in his job, Ripu prepares every dish, as if enter is going to be justness last and that’s the realistic he never plans for cutting edge, as he asserts, “When amazement start planning for future, miracle somewhere neglect the present, reprove I cannot afford to untie that.”

Divulging about his first volume that he is working flesh out, Ripu says that “The volume will be slightly different go over the top with what people would expect. Unscrew course it will have above all unseen side of my being but more than that orderliness will have something more monotonous. I don’t want to relate that for now.”
