The Hindi version of MasterChef India is based on the Australian show MasterChef Australia, which itself is based on the original British MasterChef. Akshay Kumar, Kunal Kapur, and Ajay Chopra hosted the first season of MasterChef India on Star Plus. In addition to Vikas Khanna, Sanjeev Kapoor, Ranveer Brar, Zorawar Kalra, and Vineet Bhatia, others have served as judges in MasterChef India - Hindi over the years.

But all six seasons of the show have aired on Star Plus and Disney+ Hotstar exclusively.

But now according to reports, MasterChef India has found a new home which is Sony TV.

This will be the second show to do so after India's Got Talent changed its Broadcast Channel from Colors to Sony TV

There hasn't been any confirmation from either the production house or the channel.

Even the judges haven't been confirmed yet.

Abinas Nayak emerged as the winner of MasterChef India season six. India's popular cooking reality show has been giving a platform to food enthusiasts, chefs, and homemakers to shine in their skills. Apart from the winner’s trophy, Nayak has also won a cash prize of Rs 25 lakh.

The 20-episode series saw its conclusion on March 2020 with Abinas, Akanksha Khatri, Oindrila Bala, and Smrutisree Singh making to the finalist's list. Bala was declared as the runner-up of the reality show. 27-year-old Abinas hails from Odisha and is a technology analyst by profession while on the other hand, Bala is a tax consultant from Kolkata.

MasterChef India 6 was launched on 7 December after a gap of three years. While celebrated chef Vikas Khanna made a re-entry, internationally acclaimed chef Vineet Bhatia and popular chef Ranveer Brar were enlisted as Khanna's co-judges for season 6.
