Aired on 4 November 2024 on discovery+ and Discovery Channel, the episode tests their survival skills and explores Dhawan's personal side, revealing his love for poetry alongside his cricket warrior spirit, symbolized by his famous thigh-pat celebration.

The weekly series not only showcases stars cooking but also facing survival challenges in wilderness settings.

Shikhar stated, “Being a part of Star vs Food Survival S2 was an enriching and thrilling experience for me. Working alongside Chef Ranveer Brar, I was able to push myself out of my comfort zone in ways I never imagined. Not only was it a test of endurance, but it also deepened my appreciation for food. Chef Brar’s incredible knowledge on food opened my eyes to new ways of thinking about what we eat, and I’ve learned a lot from this journey. It’s been an adventure I’ll always cherish.”

The episode explored deeper conversations about life and personal growth. Shikhar talked about fatherhood, reflected on his career, and how he looks at his illustrious 15-year-long career from a new perspective, from the outside.

Ranveer stated, “Every adventure teaches you something new, and Star vs Food Survival Season 2 was no different. Cooking in the wild with someone like Shikhar, known for his fierce ‘Gabbar’ mindset on the cricket field, was a unique experience. His resilience and adaptability, both as a cricketer and a person, really shone through. It was amazing to see how he brought that same determination to our journey in the wild.”

Ranveer and Shikhar’s expedition was more than a survival challenge; it was a heartfelt journey exploring personal growth, resilience and the beauty of life’s varied paths. But did they conquer the obstacles that nature threw their way and completed their culinary quest?
