During the challenge, Gaurav managed to secure a two-hour cooking advantage, while others, including Nikki, had between 90 to 55 minutes. As he started working on his dish, the contestants teased him about getting extra time just for aloo puri. Gaurav playfully threw carrot peels at them, but Nikki found it disrespectful and stormed off, demanding an apology before returning. However, Gaurav paid no attention, and after a while, Nikki decided to rejoin the challenge, determined to prove herself through her cooking.

Setting aside the argument, Nikki focused entirely on perfecting her Butter Chicken, knowing that winning the white apron would secure her place for the week. Observing her determination, chef Ranveer Brar remarked, "Nikki ko bas gussa dilao aur fir uska focus dekho."

As she worked on her naan, Ranveer offered a helpful tip, to which Nikki confidently responded, "This time I want to do my best and show it."

Once time was up, Nikki and Gaurav presented their dishes to the judges. The moment Nikki’s Butter Chicken was tasted, Chef Ranveer gave an immediate spoon tap, while Chef Kunal couldn’t stop praising the sauce.

Farah Khan even suggested that Nikki’s Butter Chicken Bomb deserved a place on the menu at Chef Kunal’s restaurant. Kunal agreed, and with that, Nikki won the white apron, becoming the second contestant to be safe this week. Overjoyed, she couldn’t help but celebrate, with Ranveer complimenting her dish by saying, "Swaad aagaya."
