Fear is a force that arises from the unknown, andKhatron Ke Khiladi is taking this premise to the next level. The popular stunt-based reality show is coming back with a new season with “Darr Ka Naya Daur” theme, featuring even more challenges, heart-thumping obstacles and high-octane action. The show, hosted by Rohit Shetty, took the participants to the scenic locations of Cape Town, South Africa, where they pushed themselves beyond their limits.
This season promises to be bigger and better than ever before. Moreover, it will also witness a special appearance by none other than the South African cricketer Morné Morkel. The fast bowler who has terrified countless batters with his sheer pace and height makes his television debut with Khatron Ke Khiladi. Interestingly, he is also the bowling coach of the Indian cricket team.
Contestants face Morné Morkel’s bowling
In one of the tasks, the contestants will have to catch a ball thrown by Morné Morkel. But this turns out not to be an easy out, as the participants have to contend with the fast bowling of the ex-international cricketer to complete the stunt. Morkel has spent his time on the field competing against the game’s best batsmen, and his performance on Khatron Ke Khiladi will raise the stakes in the stunt challenge while also bringing in a sporting element to it.

Now, I’m bringing that same intensity as the new face of fear on Khatron Ke Khiladi. Working with Rohit Shetty right here in my home country, South Africa, has been an incredible experience.”
