Facing every fear and hurdle with more zest and enthusiasm, they embarked on the journey to conquer their phobias but in the end there could be only one winner who emerges as victor of the season, surpassing the intense competition from the rest and, Ashish Chaudhary proved to be the best among the rest. The journey this season has by far been the most adventurous and demanding, with stunt maestro Rohit Shetty upping the ante of the stunts and the Khiladis putting in maximum effort to prove their mettle at every step of this eventful expedition. Just as spoils of the war go to the victor, Ashish Chaudhary won the hefty prize amount of Rs.25 Lakh along with the ‘New Generation Mahindra Scorpio’ car by marginally beating Chang in the final stunt. Exhibiting the uninhibited mettle of the ultimate Khiladi, Ashish Chaudhary pushed beyond his own personal limits, defeating not only competition but also the task-related obstacles which can strike fear into the hearts of many. Ever since he embarked on this adventurous journey he never looked back once, despite competition getting fiercer and daunting as the show progressed.

Commenting on his invigorating journey and winning the coveted prize, Ashish Chaudhary says, “After some rash decisions earlier in my career, I've reached a stage where I feel that work you 'enjoy' is work you do best. Before you chase a goal or a win, I feel you must see to it that you thoroughly enjoy the road that leads to it. To be happy, to be light hearted & to make great friends is the way I choose to live, and those are the precise reasons why I chose to do KKK. Considered as India’s most daring and adventurous show, targeted at reality show lovers and adrenaline junkies, Khatron Ke Khiladi – Darr Ka Blockbuster Returns transformed Cape Town into the centre of unmatched action adventureWith Rohit Shetty devising and fabricating stunts that were even more gruelling and arduous, to overcome the benchmark set by the previous season, the competition between the Khiladis was taken up another notch.
