Khatron Ke Khiladi 15 contestant Shagun Sharma has addressed the episode and shared her version of a discussion surrounding the Fear Funda. In an Instagram Stories post, she listed 10 points about the episode and appeared to respond to co contestant Gaurav Khanna.

According to Shagun, it was decided from the first day that the contestant who lost the task would be sent to the Pain Auction. She said that during the episode, host Rohit Shetty asked contestants to suggest two names, with one name already decided.

Recalling the conversation, Shagun said, "During the conversation it was said that "I am older, I know the industry better, you are young, hence I am telling you to take Fear Funds because you are not getting enough footage, and doing this stunt will give you footage.""

She said she did not agree with that reasoning, because she had experienced the Pain Auction. "I did not agree that not getting footage should be a reason to send someone to Fear Funda, especially knowing hat the person was young and that the Pain Auction I had experienced was really, really brutal."

Shagun also claimed that only part of her reasoning was shown in the episode. She said she had asked the makers to "either show the full picture or don't show anything at all." She felt this could create a "different impression."

She ended her post by stating, "But standing up for yourself should never depend on how famous the other person is."

The actress previously spoke about Gaurav on the show. In an earlier interview, Shagun alleged that she had been bullied by him on the sets. She said, "I think Gaurav Khanna is one person I would not want to meet. He was someone jinhone mujhe bhot bully kiya hai."

Shagun’s latest post was later deleted from her Instagram Stories. The post did not include Gaurav’s response to it. Shagun is seen in Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi 2. Her comments have added another layer to the discussion around the contestants on the show.
