Shiv Thakare on Khatron Ke Khiladi 13: "I am excited, but I also have butterflies in my stomach right now"

Shiv Thakare, who rose to fame with his stint in Bigg Boss Marathi and also went ahead to be the first runner-up of Bigg Boss 16, is now all set to embark on a new journey with Khatron Ke Khiladi 13. 

Talking to us, Shiv shared his excitement and said, ''Yes, I am excited, but I also have butterflies in my stomach right now. The show is very big; we have Rohit sir onboard, so all these factors are contributing to my excitement.''

Shiv also spoke about his preparations to us and said, ''Nobody prepares you to play with snakes. No matter how much you prepare yourself for a show like this, You are never fully going to be physically prepared. But yes, you have to prepare yourself mentally, and that is what I have been trying to do.''

He further shared, ''I did not know swimming, so that is what I have been trying to learn. But with people who work out, it is nearly impossible to float on water, so I am trying to put in even more hard work; let's see what happens.''

We asked Shiv about his reaction to receiving Khatron Ke Khiladi's offer, and he said, ''When you get something that you have been wanting for a long time, you obviously become very happy. This show was on my wishlist, and when I was asked if I would want to do the show, I immediately agreed. I am very happy that I got another show right after Bigg Boss.''

We wish Shiv Thakare all the very best on this new journey.
