Rohit entered the Bigg Boss house in the latest episode. The top 5 contestants- Priyanka Chahar Choudhary, MC Stan, Shiv Thakare, Archana Gautam, and Shalin Bhanot were given difficult tasks by the daredevil host, and they were forced to the brink of their abilities as they attempted to hold their breath underwater, avoid electric shocks, perform a stunt at bicycle, and face their fears. Shalin Bhanot was the performer who pulled off the task and nailed it.

Shalin was then introduced by Rohit Shetty as the season 13 debutant of Khatron Ke Khiladi. https://www.instagram.com/p/CojVqi3tw9B/?
