Mumbai, Aug 4: Actor Karan Wahi has shared photographs of the injuries he sustained while performing an elimination stunt in Khatron Ke Khiladi 15, describing it as the most painful and difficult challenge of his career on the reality show.
The latest episode featured a Fear Fanda elimination task involving Karan Wahi, Gaurav Khanna, Vishal Aditya Singh and Shagun Sharma, all of whom were left with visible bruises after completing the stunt.
Sharing pictures of his injuries on Instagram, Karan said Khatron Ke Khiladi remains his favourite reality show despite the physical hardships it involves.
"Khatron Ke Khiladi is by far my favourite show. Not because I am a daredevil or I like adventure. I am scared of everything that the show makes you do. But I love it because it teaches me things about myself I never thought I had in me," he wrote.
Karan said that although this is his third appearance on the show, the current season has been the most physically demanding.
"This is the third time I'm doing this, and it's been the scariest and the most pain-enduring season. But something about this show makes me fall in love with it even more. It's made me so much more than who I am. It's taught me who I can be if I want to," he added.
Calling the rubber bullet challenge the toughest stunt he has ever performed, Karan urged viewers not to attempt anything similar.
"Here is the most difficult stunt I have been a part of. Watch KKK15 and see all your favourites face fear like never before. Also DON'T TRY THIS ANYWHERE. Just DON'T," he wrote.
The Instagram post also carried a content warning stating that the images of his injuries might be disturbing for some viewers.
Fellow contestant Gaurav Khanna praised Karan in the comments section, calling him a "daredevil".
The stunt required contestants to stand in a line with their backs facing the shooter while rubber bullets were fired at them as part of the Fear Fanda elimination round.
Earlier, Gaurav Khanna had also shared a video showing bruises on his back after completing the same challenge.
"I could still feel this pain watching it on TV. Most painful experience ever. All four of us went through this, guys. Still have these marks," Gaurav wrote, while thanking fellow contestant Orhan Awatramani, popularly known as Orry, for recording the moment.
The posts sparked concern among fans, many of whom questioned the intensity of the stunt after seeing the injuries sustained by the contestants.
Apart from Karan Wahi and Gaurav Khanna, Khatron Ke Khiladi 15 features Avinash Mishra, Farrhana Bhat, Shagun Sharma, Avika Gor, Orry, Harsh Gujral, Jasmin Bhasin, Rubina Dilaik, Rithvik Dhanjani and Vishal Aditya Singh as contestants.
