Pavitra
Rishta
actor
Rithvik
Dhanjani,
who
was
excited
to
be
a
part
of
the
special
edition
of
Khatron
Ke
Khiladi,
has
quit
the
show
mid-way.
The
actor
was
apparently
doing
well
on
Khatron
Ke
Khiladi:
Made
In
India,
but
as
per
a
TOI
report,
he
had
to
leave
the
show
due
to
a
personal
commitment.
The
report
suggested
that
Rithvik
had
to
travel
outside
the
city
for
a
day,
and
for
the
safety
of
the
contestants
on
the
show,
he
had
to
leave
the
show.
A
source
was
quoted
by
TOI
as
saying,
"Rithvik
was
doing
well
on
the
show
and
was
among
the
top
contenders.
However,
due
to
a
personal
commitment,
he
had
to
travel
outside
the
city
for
a
day.
Keeping
the
rules
and
regulations
in
mind
during
the
pandemic,
he
opted
out
of
the
show
for
the
safety
of
his
co-contestants
and
crew.
It
was
a
tough
call
to
take,
but
there
was
no
other
way."
When
Rithvik
was
asked
about
the
same,
he
told
the
leading
daily,
"Yes,
it's
true.
The
times
we
are
living
in
are
difficult
and
safety
comes
first."
For
the
uninitiated,
first
weekend,
the
show
was
hosted
by
Farah
Khan,
but
later
Rohit
Shetty
replaced
her.
Jasmin
Bhasin,
Nia
Sharma,
Jay
Bhanushali,
Karan
Patel,
Haarsh
Limbachiyaa,
Bharti
Singh,
Karan
Wahi
and
Aly
Goni
are
the
other
celebrities
who
are
participating
in
the
show.
In
the
previous
episode,
before
leaving,
Rithvik
gave
the
champion
jacket
which
he
earned
doing
the
task,
to
Karan
Wahi.
But
since
Karan
is
eliminated,
he
gives
the
jacket
to
Nia
Sharma.
However,
Rohit
announced
that
there
won't
be
any
elimination.
