Mumbai: The iconic director and host Rohit Shetty took some time to share thrilling news with fans in a conversation with ANI about what to expect from the upcoming 14th season of ‘Khatron Ke Khiladi,’ one of the most highly anticipated reality TV shows in India.
“There is no new twist. But there are new contestants, new stunts, and a new country,” Shetty revealed, hinting at the essence and the thrill that this season is expected to bring. The advent of fresh faces, combined with innovative stunts, is certainly set to keep viewers on the edge of their seats.
A cornerstone of the show’s success is the high emphasis on safety, a point Shetty did not overlook. “Safety has always been our priority in this show because the ones who come to do stunts are actors. They are not stuntmen or trained professionals. So, safety is the most important thing for us,” he articulated firmly, underscoring the meticulous precautions taken to safeguard the participants.
The 14th season of ‘Khatron Ke Khiladi’ welcomes a stellar new lineup of contestants. The ensemble cast includes well-known personalities such as Nimrit Kaur Ahluwalia, Krishna Shroff, Abhishek Kumar, Sumona Chakravarti, Niyati Fatnani, Gashmeer Mahajani, Karan Veer Mehra, Asim Riaz, and Shalin Bhanot. Each of these contestants is ready to face their fears and take on the dangerous stunts meticulously designed to push them to their limits.
Building a rapport with these contestants is something Shetty prides himself on. “I have a different bond with everyone. And it’s a good bond. And it happens every year. You know, when you are doing a show and for so many days, for so many months, you are all together, then bonding does happen.
. But I definitely share my experience with them,” Shetty said, reflecting on the unique yet profound relationships formed during the course of the show.
The excitement intensified with the release of a gripping promo video by the makers on Instagram. The promo, shared by ColorsTV, offers fans an electrifying glimpse into the contestants’ lives and the perilous stunts awaiting them. The voiceover by Rohit Shetty starts with a lighthearted tone, capturing the contestants in a holiday mood as they enjoy the beautiful landscapes of Romania. But the atmosphere quickly shifts, indicating an abrupt change from leisure to high-stakes challenges meant to transform their dream holiday into a sequence of adrenaline-fueled nightmares.
The sneak peek underscores the intense preparations and extraordinary efforts that the contestants must undertake. It builds up the anticipation of seeing familiar faces like Gashmeer Mahajani, Nimrit Kaur Ahluwalia, Sumona Chakravarti, Karan Veer Mehra, Asim Riaz, and Shalin Bhanot, donning brave fronts as they confront their deepest fears.
Scheduled to premiere on July 27 on the Colors channel, this season promises breathtaking moments and unparalleled entertainment. The picturesque yet challenging locale of Romania serves as an ideal backdrop for the rigorous tasks, adding an extra layer of allure and excitement to the reality series.
Alongside his endeavors with ‘Khatron Ke Khiladi,’ Rohit Shetty is also in the limelight for his much-anticipated film, ‘Singham Again.’ This latest addition to the ‘Singham’ series features an ensemble cast including Ajay Devgn, Akshay Kumar, Ranveer Singh, Deepika Padukone, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Tiger Shroff, and Arjun Kapoor. ‘Singham Again’ marks the third installment in this blockbuster franchise, originally beginning with ‘Singham’ in 2011 and followed by ‘Singham Returns’ in 2014, both of which were massive box office successes.
The dual excitement of seeing Rohit Shetty helm another gripping season of ‘Khatron Ke Khiladi’ while simultaneously working on a star-studded film keeps his fans eagerly waiting for more. The show, based on the format of the American show ‘Fear Factor,’ has consistently enthralled viewers with its heart-pounding stunts and celebrity participants.
