"All the contestants were good and talented in this season. Everyone had a chance of winning the show. Every contestant had their own strength and weakness. All of them were equally competitive and gave their 100 per cent.
"Regarding the finale task, there was a difference of six to seven seconds between Hina and me. Ravi is also very good at doing tasks but unfortunately he could not complete it," Shantanu said.

After participating in a string of reality TV shows, Shantanu's name had cropped up for "Bigg Boss". Commenting on the same the actor said, "I don't think I am fit for the show. It is a tough show to be in. I would not do it."
