After winning Bigg Boss 19, Gaurav Khanna, known for his role in the popular series Anupamaa, is gearing up for the upcoming season of Khatron Ke Khiladi 15. In an exclusive interview, Khanna shared that his decision to join the show was influenced by his MasterChef co-star, Faisal Shaikh, who initially encouraged him to participate in both reality shows. Despite his mother's reluctance and his own skepticism about taking on another challenge so soon, Khanna decided to embrace the opportunity for growth and reinvention. He expressed excitement about the thrill of facing fears, as advised by Shaikh, who highlighted the importance of overcoming challenges in the game. The new season of Khatron Ke Khiladi, hosted by filmmaker Rohit Shetty, will air in the second half of 2026 and will feature a mix of former contestants and new participants, raising the stakes for everyone involved. Filming is set to occur in South Africa, known for its diverse and rugged landscapes, which will provide a unique backdrop for the show's daring stunts.
