Vishal Aditya Singh has been part of successful shows over the years and has managed to make a place for himself in the industry.
The actor, who has been missing from the small screen is all set to make a grand comeback with Khatron Ke Khiladi 15.
Vishal impressed viewers with his journey on KKK 11, emerging as the second runner-up in 2021.
He is now all set to face his fears once again with KKK 15.
In an exclusive conversation with Times of India TV, the actor spoke about his journey, fitness routine and performing daredevil stunts. (Photo: Instagram)I’ve always said that I’m a fighter.
Last time, I reached the finale but the trophy slipped away.
When I got the call to return as a challenger I felt this was my chance to step back into that battlefield and prove that the Desi Boy is still just as dangerous. (Photo: Instagram)Honestly, yes.
In Mumbai’s hectic routine you don’t get the kind of adrenaline rush that you feel on the streets of South Africa while doing those stunts.
I was really missing that thrill and Rohit sir's iconic 3-2-1 Go voice. (Photo: Instagram)The first time I was a little impulsive; I would jump into everything without thinking twice.
This time there’s more calmness and maturity.
The status of being a Challenger is different; you have to show the new contestants that this game is about both the mind and the heart. (Photo: Instagram)I’ve always been mentally strong, but this time I’m smarter too.
Knowing the format helps because now I understand when to save my energy and when to give it my all.
Fear no longer feels like an enemy; it feels like a friend. (Photo: Instagram)After last season I worked a lot on my swimming and my fear of water.
Everyone knows water used to be a weak point for me so this time I focused more on breathing techniques and water endurance so nobody can catch me off guard there. (Photo: Instagram)The fear of water is still there but I’ve learned how to fight it.
But those electric shock stunts—there’s no escaping them.
The moment that current hits you all your preparation goes out the window. (Photo: Instagram)Yes, I’ve focused more on flexibility and functional training.
I’m from Bihar so strength has been in me since childhood but for stunts, your body also needs to be flexible.
This time I’ve come back as a more lean and mean machine. (Photo: Instagram)A lot of people are performing really well this season but I believe the one who stays calm under pressure is the real long-race horse.
I won’t take names but the competition is tough and I’m not going to let anyone win easily. (Photo: Instagram)This show has taught me that giving up is never an option.
I come from a small town where life itself felt like a stunt but this show taught me discipline and focus. (Photo: Instagram)Absolutely.
Now whenever life throws a challenge at me I think, 'Bro, if I could hang 400 feet in the air and perform a stunt, then what is this?' The confidence to handle pressure now runs in my veins.
There is only one lesson: Victory lies beyond fear isn’t just a line; it’s reality.
Until you grab fear by the throat it will keep scaring you.
The moment you take action fear disappears. (Photo: Instagram)
