Actor Ashish Chowdhry has won the sixth season of stunt-based reality show "Khatron Ke Khiladi (KKK) - Darr Ka Blockbuster Returns" beating 13 contestants.
The show, hosted by filmmaker Rohit Shetty, was held in Cape Town in South Africa. The 10-week long show ended on Sunday night. Around 14 contestants participated in the stunt based reality show this year.
Ashish said that his twin daughters turned out to be lucky for him. His daughters were just 15 days old when he joined "Khatron Ke Khiladi" team in Cape Town.
"I've always loved having children. I think the girls have been lucky for me as I left them when they were 15 days old and I think it was their luck which worked as a magic for me," Ashish, who takes care of five children, told IANS.
Ashish has a son named Agasthya and he also takes care of his late sister's children Kanishk and Ananya.
"I'm happy that I settled down young and then I became a young father. I enjoy the fact that it makes me a more responsible and hardworking human being because when you are single you can always takes on things easy. It can only do you good when you have a family like mine," he added.
Ashish, the winner of "KKK", won a cash prize of 25 lakh and a Mahindra Scorpio car. In the final round, he competed with actors Iqbal Khan, Sagarika Ghatge and the multi-faceted Meiyang Chang.
"I was the first contestant ever to have not gone into an elimination stunt throughout. So, I was lucky there and almost everybody was astonished by this fact. This makes it a clean win for me," he said.
"You really have to prepare yourself mentally to stand in a show like this because they make you go through many medical tests before you sign it. It's special for someone like me as I've faced big problems in my life, but still I found out the way to enjoy it, so my dream is fulfilled with 'Khatron Ke Khiladi'," said the actor, who once faced a financial crisis.
Meanwhile, fellow contestants and Ashish's fans wished him on winning the stunt-based reality show.
