Earlier, Shiv Thakare referred to Khatron Ke Khiladi 13 as a "dream come true". He said, "I have conquered many anxieties in my life, and I'm happy to face the ultimate series of khatras in this epic show under the direction of action expert Rohit Shetty. After Bigg Boss, I've always wanted to see this show, and I believe my Bappa has one again given my request. I'm prepared to put my physical and mental abilities to the test on the programme because it's an opportunity of a lifetime."
While MC Stan lifted the trophy on 'Bigg Boss 16', Shiv emerged as the first runner-up. The actor recently collaborated with music composer Mayur Jumani for the one-minute music video 'Aai Shapphat', which captures his journey on the reality show.
Talking about the peppy track, Shiv said: "One day I got a call from Mayur, he said I have made this song called 'Aai Shapphat' which captures your 'Bigg Boss season 16' journey, can you meet and discuss the same? I always appreciate and respect people around me. So I took time and went to meet him and when I listened to what he had made, I was so happy and felt blessed about it."
Shiv has also participated in reality shows like MTV's Roadies Rising', 'Bigg Boss Marathi 2', and recently became a guest commentator in one of the matches of IPL 2023 between Rajasthan Royals and Delhi Capitals.
