The shooting for Rohit Shetty’s Khatron Ke Khiladi 9 has started in Argentina. The ninth season of the stunt-based show has an interesting mix of contestants this year, which has increased the anticipation for KKK 9. The show will reportedly air after Bigg Boss 12 as the Colors TV has plans to launch the Salman Khan hosted show earlier this year. We recently informed you that Vikas Gupta and Zain Imam have suffered minor injuries while performing their stunts on the show. All the contestants are giving their best to perform the stunts successfully but it seems one celeb is yet to perform her first task. We are talking about Shilpa Shetty’s sister Shamita Shetty, who is a participant in the ninth season of KKK.


The ‘Zeher’ actress didn’t perform the stunts because of her health issues and the team had to start work without her, a report in a leading daily suggested. The actress had refused to shoot owing to her poor health.

Shamita Shetty has been recuperating but her participation in KKK 9 is doubtful, the report added.

“The first few episodes have been shot but Shamita hasn’t performed tasks as she is unwell. The team started shooting last Wednesday where contestants had a height task and another stunt in a box filled with bees. Meanwhile, Shamita has been recuperating. A decision is yet to be taken if she will continue with the show or return to India,” a source from the set told Mumbai Mirror.

Shamita, who debuted in Bollywood with the film ‘Mohabbatein’, has been part of shows like Bigg Boss and Jhalak Dikhla Ja on the small screen. She participated in Bigg Boss 3 but her stint in the show was cut short due to Shilpa Shetty’s wedding.

We wish Shamita a speedy recovery and hope she continues to be part of the show.
