Khatron Ke Khiladi 13 Update: Shiv Thakare, Archana Gautam & Other Contestants To Start Shoot From THIS Date

Khatron Ke Khiladi 13 update: Rohit Shetty is all set to return to the TV screens with an action-packed season of his reality show. KKK 13 has been making waves ever since the Bollywood filmmaker entered the Bigg Boss 16 house to select the first contestant of the show. While the top five finalists of Salman Khan's Bigg Boss 16 locked horns to secure an opportunity, only two of them have signed the deals.

Shalin Bhanot defeated Priyanka Choudhary to get an opportunity to feature in Khatron Ke Khiladi 13. However, the Bekaboo star politely declined the offer, stating that he has certain phobias and won't be able to participate in the show.

Shiv Thakare and Archana Gautam, who couldn't compete in the final stunt in February inside the BB 16 house, have now confirmed their participation. The two arch rivals will now showcase their daredevil side in the reality show, which will air on Colors channel.
