Social media has been buzzing with reports that the show will feature both returning and fresh contestants. Here is the list of confirmed participants for Khatron Ke Khiladi 15.

Harsh Gujral
Popular stand-up comedian Harsh Gujral, known for his impeccable timing, wit, and unapologetic roasting style, will make his Hindi television reality debut. He said, 'This is a completely different battlefield. The fears here are far more real and intense, definitely not as mild as stage fright or worrying about what people might think. What excites me is that it is a whole new world of challenges, and I am looking forward to experiencing every bit of it.'
Orry (Orhan Awatramani)
Social media sensation and Bollywood's BFF Orhan Awatramani, popularly known as Orry, has also been roped in for Khatron Ke Khiladi 15.

Then I found out it is basically Fear Factor. I am used to being the most feared person in the room, not the most fearful. But I thought, you know what... let the tables turn, this may be good for my character development. So here I am, no idea what is going on, but fully committed. Let us grip it and rip it... and try not to die.'

Having worked in fiction, I felt it was the right time to challenge myself and explore a completely new space, and this show offers exactly that. It is not just about facing fears; it is about discovering a stronger, more fearless version of yourself, and that is what drew me to say yes.'
