Actor Karanvir Mehra, who won the title of ‘Khatron Ke Khiladi 14’, shared insights into his journey, his preparation, and how he manifested his victory even before entering the show. The grand finale of Rohit Shetty’s popular stunt-based reality show aired recently, with Karanvir being announced as the winner. His triumph came with a trophy, prize money of ₹20 lakh, and a brand-new car. In an exclusive conversation, Karanvir discussed how he mentally prepared himself to take on the challenges, his bond with Rohit Shetty, and his thoughts on future projects, including his stance on joining Bigg Boss.
Manifesting Victory Before Entering Khatron Ke Khiladi 14
Karanvir Mehra, still riding high on his victory, opened up about his mindset before joining the show. “Before going in, I had already declared that I would win. I had manifested this victory, and I think it played a huge role in my journey.” According to the actor, while every contestant had their strengths and weaknesses, he had a personal belief that winning was his destiny.
He shared that many contestants might have had similar beliefs, but for him, it was a firm resolve. “Other people might have spoken about winning, but I had come to this show with a very clear mindset—I would return only after winning.”
A Sports Background Played a Role in His Success
Karanvir revealed that being a sports person since childhood helped him in Khatron Ke Khiladi. “I’ve been a part of the NCC, I’ve been a marathon runner, and have also experienced the tough life in a hostel. All those things came together during the show, helping me push through the challenges.”
Apart from his past experiences, Karanvir prepared physically by undergoing strength and core training before the show. “I did a lot of strength training before entering the show. This really helped me during the stunts, but at the same time, other contestants were equally prepared. In the end, it also came down to luck.” He credited luck for some of his wins, stating that timing and circumstances played a big part in his success.
The Show Changed His Perspective on Life
Discussing how the show impacted him personally, Karanvir said, “Khatron Ke Khiladi taught me how to deal with life’s difficulties. Every stunt felt like a metaphor for life. You face challenges, you feel like you can’t go on anymore, but once you push through, you realize you can handle much more than you think.” This newfound perspective has changed how he looks at the problems in his life. Now, he’s determined to overcome difficulties head-on, inspired by Rohit Shetty’s voice encouraging him during the stunts.
The Bond With Rohit Shetty: A Mentor and a Guide
Karanvir spoke highly of the show’s host Rohit Shetty. “People warned me before the show that Rohit sir is strict, so initially I was very reserved around him. But as time passed, I realized that he’s not only perfect at his job but also an amazing human being. He’s a very grounded person and extremely supportive.” He further described Rohit as someone who is “22 out of 20,” highlighting his humility and leadership throughout the competition.
Life After Khatron Ke Khiladi 14: Plans and Future Challenges
When asked about his future plans after winning Khatron Ke Khiladi, Karanvir mentioned his upcoming projects, including a music video for a song titled ‘Kehna Galat Galat’. The song, originally sung by Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, has been reinterpreted by Jyoti Nooran, and Karanvir is excited about its release.
As for participating in the reality show Bigg Boss, Karanvir shared his mixed feelings. “Bigg Boss is a completely different ball game. It’s more mentally and emotionally challenging than Khatron Ke Khiladi, and to be honest, it scares me a little. I’ve been asked to participate before, but I always ask if I can bring my phone with me because I stay connected with my family through it.” He laughed off the idea, explaining that his reliance on staying connected to his family is what has kept him from participating so far.
However, he did leave the door open for future possibilities. “Never say never. Who knows, maybe someday I’ll get excited and join Bigg Boss. Anything can happen.”
Winning Against All Odds: Karanvir’s Takeaway from Khatron Ke Khiladi 14
Reflecting on his experience in Khatron Ke Khiladi 14, Karanvir said that each contestant brought something unique to the table. From seasoned actors like Krishna Shroff to the show’s numerous tough competitors, every participant had their strengths. “Everyone was better than me in some things, and I was better than them in others,” Karanvir humbly shared.
His takeaway from the entire journey is simple: Face life’s challenges head-on, and don’t back down. “Just like in the show, you think you can’t do something, but you push yourself, and eventually, you do it. That’s what I’ve learned, and I’ll carry that lesson with me in the future.”
The Impact of Karanvir’s Win
Karanvir Mehra’s victory on Khatron Ke Khiladi 14 is a testament to his hard work, determination, and the mental strength he displayed throughout the show. With the trophy, ₹20 lakh prize money, and a brand-new car in hand, Karanvir is now excited about his future and what comes next in his career.
