One of the most popular reality shows on Indian television, Khatron Ke Khiladi is set to return with its ninth season very soon. According to reports, Colors is planning to launch the latest season on 5th January, 2019.

Khatron Ke Khiladi 9, hosted by filmmaker Rohit Shetty, will hit the airwaves nearly five months after it was first expected to go on-air. Shot in Argentine, the series was reportedly delayed due to some unavoidable production issues.

The latest season of Khatron Ke Khiladi will feature Shamita Shetty, Bandgi Kalra, Avika Gor, Bharti Singh, Jasmin Bhasin, Ridhima Pandit, Aditya Narayan, Zain Imam, Aly Goni, Punit Pathak, Vikas Gupta and Haarsh Limbaachiya.
