I guess, in times like these, we should trust our destiny… for it’s plan could be better than ours! Feels strange, but as they also say ‘This too, shall pass’!!!”
This year, Khatron Ke Khiladi started with ten contestants. Apart from the finalists, the other contestants were Shivin Narang, Tejasswi Prakash, Adaa Khan, Amruta Khanvilkar, RJ Malishka and Rani Chatterjee. Tejasswi had to quit the show mid-way due to an eye injury.
