Laughter Chefs extension CANCELLED; Bharti Singh's show final episode airing in October 2024 - Reports

The popular cooking show, Laughter Chefs Unlimited Entertainment, which debuted in June 2024, is coming to an end. Hosted by Bharti Singh and judged by celebrity chef Harpal Singh Sokhi, this entertaining series features stars like Ankita Lokhande, Aly Goni, and Rahul Vaidya. The last episode will be aired in October 2024.

There was speculation that the show might continue until January 2025. However, insiders have confirmed that due to the upcoming season of the controversial reality show Bigg Boss, Laughter Chefs will conclude earlier than expected. “Laughter Chefs season one is all set to air its last episode in October,” shared a source.

The channel had previously asked the cast to keep their schedules open until January. But since the final contracts were not signed, the extension has been cancelled. “Extension is not happening anymore, and the show will air its last episode in October,” the insider added.

The show features Ankita Lokhande's husband, Vicky Jain, alongside other celebrities like Arjun Bijlani, Krushna Abhishek, Karan Kundrra, Nia Sharma, Jannat Zubair Rahmani, Reem Shaikh, Sudesh Lehri, and Kashmera Shah. It airs on Colors TV. Meanwhile, superstar Salman Khan is set to return as the host for the 18th season of Bigg Boss. Comedian-singer Munawar Faruqui won the previous season.

Bigg Boss 18 is set to premiere on October 6 on Colors TV. In her recent work, Ankita Lokhande appeared in the film Swatantrya Veer Savarkar, which is based on the life of Vinayak Damodar Savarkar and directed by Randeep Hooda, who also stars in the lead role.

Arjun Bijlani, who began his career in 2004 with Kartika, is a former winner of Fear Factor: Khatron Ke Khiladi 11 and has hosted MTV Splitsvilla 14. He was last seen in the TV show Pyar Ka Pehla Adhyaya: Shiv Shakti.
