Jay Bhanushali: To get a chance to be a part of Khatron Ke Khiladi for the second time is something that I am even more excited about!

Jay Bhanushali is all set to be seen in a special edition of the Colors TV stunt based reality show, Khatron ke Khiladi: Made in India. Earlier, Jay was a part of Khatron ke Khiladi Season 7 where he was seen facing some challenging and difficult stunts. 

We at India Forums got in touch with Jay where he spoke to us about his participation in the show and what motivated him to do so. Have a look: 

What motivated you to once again face your fears in this special edition of Khatron ke Khiladi?

I have always been very fond of the show, and to participate in it has always been a dream! The first time I got to do it was honestly great. It helped me conquer so many of my fears and made me so much stronger, mentally and physically than I ever imagined! So to get a chance to be a part of Khatron Ke Khiladi for the second time is something that I am even more excited about and hoping to just give it my all! 

Earlier, you had also mentioned that the show is about mental strength. What are the Preparations or conscious efforts that you have inculcated to be mentally strong?

For me being mentally strong means telling myself I can do this even if I feel I cannot! That is what I am going to be following through the season while performing the stunts. Just telling myself and inculcating all the energy, determination and motivation in those few minutes to finish the stunt in the way I would want to, is what I am going to be aiming at! 

What impact have Khatron ke Khiladi 7 had on you, did the show help you overcome any specific fears?

Khatron season 7 really helped me grow and evolve so much as a person. Not only did it help me conquer so many of my fears, but it also taught me about survival of the fittest, and to rise above the lows, specially when I had to quit due to my injury, but since I had acquired so much mental strength by then I was really able to handle it in very composed manner. 

Keeping the current situation in mind, will it be more challenging to perform the tasks while adhering to the social distancing norms?

The team here is taking very good care to ensure precautions are taken at each step, so it does ease a lot of worries of us at the moment. Regular sanitization and  temperature checks are conducted, and social distancing is importantly maintained on set.
