Now, after a brief pause, the much-awaited Khatron Ke Khiladi 15 is officially set to return in 2026, and early buzz around the new season has already taken over social media.
During one of the Weekend Ka Vaar episodes of Bigg Boss 19, longtime host Rohit Shetty confirmed that the show is not cancelled and will be back next year. With Bigg Boss 19 now concluded, fans are eagerly waiting for updates about KKK’s contestant lineup.

Meanwhile, a video of Digvijay Rathee also showing interest in the show has been circulating on social media, further fuelling speculation around the possible contestants.
As for the delay, Khatron Ke Khiladi 15 was reportedly put on hold in 2025 due to budget-related disagreements.
