Gaurav Khanna Opens Up On Akanksha Chamola’s Possible Wild Card Entry
When asked whether Akanksha Chamola could enter Khatron Ke Khiladi 15 as a wild card, Gaurav Khanna replied, “Ho sakta hai, why not. Woh toh unke upar hai, but mujhe pata nahi hai. Aur specially aisi cheezein woh log batate bhi nahi hai, aur batani nahi bhi chahiye. Because I feel woh ek reality show mein real hona chahiye, woh reality aspect hona hi chahiye.”
Gaurav further added, “And contrary to what you all consider, reality shows real hote hain. Joh logon ko lagta hai na ki yaar yeh toh famous face hai, bhai yahan koi kisi ka rishtedaar nahi hai. Agar aap achha nahi karte, toh reality shows are so expensive that should you are usually not good for the production house, should you are usually not giving them what they need from you, you won’t be within the show.”
Gaurav Khanna Talks About His Biggest Fear
Furthermore, when asked about his biggest fear, Gaurav shared, “Mera sabse bada fear sach mein agar important bolun, meri life mein yeh hai ki the day I stop trying something latest, I do know it can stop my growth. And that’s one thing which I actually have purposely over time tried to do yearly. Predominant har show jab bhi naya karta hoon, important sochta hoon pichhle wale se alag ho, kuch naya ho. Kyunki mujhe pata hai ki comfort zone ke bahar aakar hi aapko success milti hai. Toh maine jab every day soap kara tha, tab romantic shows kar raha tha, toh maine suddenly ek aisa show kiya jahan pe already ek elderly character tha, ek elderly mature love story thi. Toh mera comfort zone nahi tha woh, maine kabhi usse pehle kiya nahi tha.”
He continued, “Lekin maine kaha kuch naya karenge aur woh logon ko itna pasand aaya. Uske baad phir jab important cooking show mein gaya, toh mera comfort zone nahi tha. Predominant regular nahi khana banata tha. Toh wahan pe bhi zero se start kiya aur dheere-dheere it got here out well. Phir 15-16 logon ke saath maine kabhi nahi socha tha ki important ek ghar mein rahunga 108 din ya 105 din, toh woh bhi kiya. So I all the time keep trying something latest. And now this.”
The Anupamaa actor concluded,” I knew that I’d do it sometime in my life, but yeh nahi pata tha ki immediately karunga. So maine kaha higher late than never, abhi kar lo. Abhi toh sirf ek haath aur ek shoulder mein issue hai, kahin aisa na ho do-teen saal baad sab mein ho (laughs).”

If it’s Bollywood, she’s already invested—movies, drama, and all of the gossip included. When she’s not writing, she’s either dancing her heart out like nobody’s watching or attempting to mimic people, proving that not all talents are supposed to be discovered.
