Youth faints playing in fear factor ‘Khatron ke Khiladi’
Indore, July 14 (IANS) Fear factor “Khatron ke Khiladi” turned really dangerous in this Madhya Pradesh city when a 22-year-old participant fainted under water during the thrill-packed game. He is now struggling for life in a hospital, police said Monday.
Anzar, a resident of Sagar, who had come to Indore with his friends on a private visit, went to participate in the reality show, organised by the Candid Marketing Co for Colors TV channel at Treasure Island, late Saturday evening.
“Participants were supposed to remain under water in a tank (for few seconds). Anzar also did the same but he fell unconscious. When he did not came out for about 10 minutes, his friends raised an alarm,” police officer D.S. Baghel told IANS.
“The organisers instead of rescuing him fled the scene. Later the people witnessing the show brought him out of the tank and rushed him to a nearby private nursing home,” Baghel said. The police have registered a case against Kunal, Ravi and Ajay of the Candid Marketing.
