Ashrita, who is actor Rana Daggubati's cousin, is a chef, baker, food blogger, entrepreneur and culinary expert.

In this challenge, home cooks were assigned popular drinks, and had to incorporate the flavors of these drinks into desserts.

Home cooks also needed to ensure that the drink's inherent flavor and familiarity was not lost in the transition process. Drinks used in this challenge include Pani Puri, Filter Coffee, Shirley Temple, Pacha Pulusu, Aam Panna, Pina Colada, Panakam and Ragi Java.

Ashrita along with chefs Sanjay Thumma, Nikita Umesh and Chalapathi Rao evaluated the dishes and selected the best dish of the day and the bottom two dishes.

While the bottom two dishes disqualified their creators from the immunity challenge, the best dish of the day awarded its creator the advantage for the next challenge.

'MasterChef India Telugu' airs from Monday to Friday at 1 pm. On Sony Liv.
