"It feels good to be back to my home ground with 'Khatron Ke Khiladi' and it is exciting to do something which I love to do - adventurous stunts. This time the boys will be expected to perform some really edgy stunts. I am going to be absolutely tough and brutal with the boys and yes, it will be worth watching," Akshay said in a statement.
The show will be shot in South Africa with 13 male celebrities and their 13 female partners.
This time, the winner will not only get the title of being the 'Khiladi', but also chosen as the 'Thums Up Thunder Star' and get an opportunity to feature with its brand ambassador Akshay in their new campaign.
Akshay, who believes in performing every stunt prior to the boys, has gone through rigorous training for the show that will go on air mid-May.
