MUMBAI: Niyati Fatnani recently shared her experiences from "Khatron Ke Khiladi 14," emphasizing the difficult acts she had to perform and her mother's responses to her audacious actions. She described her most challenging stunt—which involved honey bees stinging her face and thighs, inflicting excruciating pain—in an exclusive interview with ETimes TV. Niyati also disclosed that, while performing a water stunt, she had her first panic episode, pushing her physical and emotional boundaries.
Talking about her journey in KKK 14, Niyati said, “It was a surprising journey for me as I did go into the show with too many expectations. I did not think too much, the only thing I knew was to give my 100 percent in the show. I in fact, did not even know that we can abort stunts, I learnt about it after we started shooting. I only wanted to overcome my fears because this was my first reality show and I didn’t want my fans to think that I couldn’t do the stunts. I wanted to give my best and I was really surprised with the way things happened and the way I performed. It was miraculous.”
Niyati revealed suffering a panic attack during a water stunt saying, “The other was a water stunt, and as I’m not a pro swimmer, I was very scared. The moment I was put inside the water, I felt short of breath. I had not even started the stunt, and I was already very scared. I suffered a panic attack while performing it. For the first time, I got a panic attack. Mujhe pehli baar pata chala ke kya hota hai panic attack, ke aap ko saans nahi aarahi hai, and I was not letting go of the stuntman. He came to help me reach the mark, and I just held on to him. I refused to leave him and I kept shouting, 'Help, help.”
Niyati concluded saying, “My family is very happy. So far, I’ve only been sharing my experiences and showing them a few pictures from my stunts where I got rashes from tarantulas, roaches, and snakes. I had a lot of rashes and sent them pictures, which scared them. They asked about medications and everything. But when they saw the promos of me covered in honeybees, my mom was shocked and said, 'Itna danger tha?' The honeybees were biting me, and that’s why I was shouting. They were on my inner thighs and face, which are especially sensitive areas, so the pain was even worse. But during a stunt, what else can you expect? I was just chanting God's name and got through it.”
