Gaurav Khanna breaks into tears as he Steps Down Rohit Shetty's Khatron Ke Khiladi 15, saves Ruhaanika

Gaurav Khanna has made headlines for all the wrong reasons after quitting Khatron Ke Khiladi 15 mid-competition. The actor's shocking decision to exit the show despite winning an elimination stunt and saving fellow contestant Ruhaanika Dhawan from elimination has left fans emotional.

Elimination Stunt This Week Required

The elimination stunt this week required contestants to climb onto a platform suspended in the air and pull out flags attached to it to complete the task. While Gaurav managed to pull out two flags, Rubina Dilaik was able to pull out only one. Ruhaanika, meanwhile, slipped and fell from the platform, leading to her stunt being halted immediately.

Even though Gaurav won the elimination stunt and Ruhaanika was the one who was supposed to be eliminated. Gaurav made the shocking decision to exit the show. The actor told Rohit Shetty, "I want to take an exit from the show because it's taking a toll on my health."

Gaurav Broke Down Tears Apologised

Gaurav broke down in tears as he apologised to his fellow contestants for quitting the show and also apologised to the host for his decision. He then went on to hug Rohit and touch his feet before making his exit. Ruhaanika also came to speak to him and tried to convince him not to quit.

However, the actor was adamant that he would not be able to give his 100% because of his elbow injury.

Gaurav's exit left fans emotional as well. One of the comments read, "GK, you are a pure-hearted person; you already won hearts." Another commented, "As an audience, we can clearly see his sadness and stress."

This year's season of Khatron Ke Khiladi was based on the theme 'Old vs New: Darr Ka Naya Daur'. The season brought together returning contestants. This includes Rubina Dilaik, Rithvik Dhanjani, Vishal, Karan Wahi and Jasmin Bhasin, alongside a new group of contestants such as Avinash Mishra, Farrhana Bhatt, Orry, Ruhaanika Dhawan and Gaurav Khanna.

The show initially featured Old vs New team-based tasks. However, the teams were eventually dissolved, and the contestants began competing individually for a place in the finale. The finale episode of the show was shot on September 13.

And fans are now speculating that either Avinash Mishra or Farrhana Bhatt could have won the trophy.
