Yesterday's episode kept me thinking whether I was watching a cooking reality show in DABH or cat-fights in a fish market.😆. Well, thought I exclaimed OMG, I did ROFLing watching it...🤣. Since a lot of controversy is aired in the forum regarding WTC competition, I would like to mention a few points that grabbed my attention. Well, these are my personal views & I don't claim them to be flawless.
1. Sooraj is taking part in World's Top Cook. A cook is one cooks any stuff (of his own choice also) where as a Chef is a cook with limitations.Its not World's Top Chef, World's Top Cook.
2. One of the jugdes in Masterchef Autralia is also Gary- Mr.Gary Mehigan.
3. WTC of DABH follows a line of competition similar to that of Master Chef US. For eg- purchasing vegetables, identifying ingredients by smell/taste,correcting damaged dish etc... It also allows the participants to cook dishes of own choice
4. WTC follows a dramatization similar to MasterChef Australia.
5. MasterChef Australia has faced controversies in terms of quality, structure, judgement and skill of the contestants. Other commentators have also criticised the show for using a competition format similar to other reality shows such as Australian Idol , The Biggest Loser and Project Runway Australia that focuses more on the elimination of contestants than the food and cooking itself. Fremantle Media's Paul Franklin has asserted that "for a commercial audience we needed to pump it up and make it bigger, a little over the top, with more drama and storytelling and a sense of theatre". So WTC is no less than Master Chef Australia.
6. Religious controversy- Kate Bracks , who has made it to the final eight on the Master Chef Australia, caused controversy when she admitted to feeling "uncomfortable" around the Buddhist leader Dalai Lama during a recent episode because she is a Christian. Our Mathy is no less similar, but far better than this.
7. Final winner of Master Chef Australia itself was a controversy. Significant numbers of viewers have raised allegations that the voting on the season one finale of MasterChef was fraudulent after Julie Goodwin won the crown. After the airing of the finale talkback radio became inundated with calls, both for and against the verdict, and the finale also became a top trending topic on social networking site Twitter, where many users said they felt "deflated" and "ripped off" by the final episode of the hit show.
8. MasterChef US second season has recieved strong negative responses & reviews upon finding the videos aired were edited with graphic works increasing number of people taking part in audition etc...
This is just to show how unreliable are even the cooking reality shows. We can find enough controversies related to MasterChef while we google. If these are what we find in Media, we can guess what is happening in reality. The production team will chop off such scenes & will be showing to us. And I feel DABH CVs are showing the truth behind the curtains and they did it outstandingly well. I agree there are problems with diction & translation, but now I feel DABH CVs did a very good reserch on Cooking Reality Shows before they prepared script.

. So true it is.Originally posted by: MisscoolEyesEDIT- Oh and wouldn't people label it as "boring" and asked why is the serial turning into a reality show if they showed a strict emotionless competition. Either way,it's challenging to incorporate a competition into a fictional show and negative remarks had to come.It's a double-edges sword that the CV's have picked up and they are faring okay till now.[/DIV]
