Talking about Laughter Chefs exclusively with SCREEN, Karan Kundrra said, 'Season 1 had ended abruptly, and there were no winners. We were all figuring out what the show was like; it was supposed to be a filler show, and suddenly it became a rage. When season 1 got over, there was a gap, and there were 16 people in this season, other than Bharti and chef Harpal, so there were a lot of issues. But I wanted to be back on the show, because it's therapy.'
He added, 'Laughter Chefs 1 was the first time I entered the kitchen in my life. I have never cooked before. I didn't know I had a knack for cooking and would enjoy it so much. By season 2, I realized how to make food tasty. Shooting for the show is way more fun. What translates on screen is just 40-50 minutes, but we shoot for 16 hours, so imagine all the fun we have. I was shooting in Dubai and would never miss a day. I would take a flight at 3:30 am after shooting all day and night, come here, and would not even feel tired, that's how great the contestants were in both seasons. '
Karan Kundrra also shared that he was initially skeptical when they were offered the first season of Laughter Chefs. 'Yes, we were skeptical. We didn't know what we were getting into. There were so many questions and apprehensions about working with 16 other people. I'll be very honest, actors are very insecure people; they don't want to share their screen space, everybody is worried about positioning, but we lucked out. In both seasons, nobody was negative on the show; that's what made it very happy to shoot. One wrong contestant and things could go South, but that never happened.'
Lastly, Karan spoke about Season 3 of Laughter Chefs. 'I don't know if season 3 is in talks, but according to me, the show is inevitable. It has good ratings, and this show has reached worldwide.'
