Commenting on what the viewers can expect from the show, Manisha Sharma, Programming Head – COLORS, said, “After a successful season last year, Khatron Ke Khiladi: Darr Ka Blockbuster Returns is back with unique elements enhancing the entertainment level this season. This time around viewers will be treated to stunts that will astound with their edginess. Fear will permeate every aspect of the show, right from the stunts to the house where the contestants are staying. Needless to say, the contestants have also had to up their game to keep up with the surprises that are being thrown at them. Rohit Shetty, the architect behind these fascinating stunts has also taken on a more mature role this time. His role goes beyond anchoring, into being a disciplinarian keeping contestants in check while also provoking and prodding them to face their fears. Truly adding the ‘blockbuster’ touch to the show, a lot of new elements and high energy will make the show a thrilling watch as the contestants give it their best shot.”
Outshining the boys this year, the girls will take over this season in the true spirit of Khatron Ke khiladi:Darr Ka Blockbuster Returns. Bollywood’s handsome hunk Ashish Chowdhary who is known to tickle audience’s funny bone with his – ‘Dhamaal’ act will be in for a surprise when he finds himself in middle of some ‘Dhamakedaar’ explosions burning away his expectations from his journey in Khatron Ke Khiladi. We all have seen and loved Rashmi Desai in Uttaran as the outspoken and bold ‘Tappu’, but contrary to her on screen image Rashmi develops cold feet, literally, at the sight of stunts! The first few episodes of this season will amaze viewers beyond measure with the superior-level of stunts planned and executed with such precision and enthusiasm. Helicopters, cranes, glass tunnels and speed boats, the contestants will have to push their way ahead with utmost accuracy driven by sheer will-power, this season.
As Rohit Shetty joins back as the host for this year’s action-packed extravaganza, the show is all revved up as the scary stunts unfold against the breathtaking landscape of Cape Town.
