When ‘Khatron Ke Khiladi’ came my way, I grabbed the opportunity without any hesitation. I had fear of water and heights and this looked like perfect way to overcome my phobias.
“The whole journey was not only challenging but extremely fun for me. The mantra to perform better each time for me was to keep myself calm and focus all my energy only at task,” he said in a statement.
