Popular television actor Siddharth Shukla says one becomes bold and learns new skills while doing reality shows.
Siddharth has participated in dance reality show "Jhalak Dikhla Jaa" and anchored "India's Got Talent".
"Reality shows make you more bold and you learn new skills like dancing, anchoring. It has been a fulfilling experience for me," Siddharth told PTI in an interview.
Now, Siddharth is one of the contestants on adventure reality show "Khatron Ke Khiladi".
"The idea was to do something that you can't do in real life. I wanted to do something that gives you that adrenaline rush...(that's) edgy and fun," he said.
Though the show has daredevil stunts, Siddharth doesn't have any fear.
"I don't have any fears... I will just go with the flow and see if I have any," he said.
Siddharth has been on television for quite some time and he thinks the medium has grown over time.
"Television is growing. It is a huge market for great content. We have big actors coming on television, doing shows here, as there is potential in television to reach a wider audience," he added.
