MUMBAI: Varun Sood is known for participating in reality shows such as Roadies, Splitsvilla and Ace Of Space.
The handsome lad is now gearing up for the popular stunt-based reality show Khatron Ke Khiladi 11. He is currently shooting in Cape Town for the show. In an interview with ETimes TV, Varun spoke about his phobias and how Roadies' Rannvijay Singha and girlfriend Divya Agarwal helped him to prep for the show. Talking about his phobias, he said, “I am really scared of snakes. Other creepy crawlies we have seen in our lives and sometimes at our homes. So, I am not that scared about them. But snakes I am scared of the most and that phobia I have since my childhood days. I just hope that I get to overcome it after participating in Khatron Ke Khiladi 11. I haven’t seen the previous seasons of KKK. I have mostly seen snippets of tasks on social media. I think physical stunts won’t be very difficult for me because I’ve done it many a times. I think stunts which involve mental strength there I am going to face challenges. Being patient, focused is something that depends on that particular day and how I am feeling during a particular task, this makes me nervous. Rest I will manage everything.”

Sharing how Divya helped him, he said, “Divya has been very supportive during my preparation because when I was preparing I used to make my own mini tasks. And during these small small tasks I have injured myself also and I have even broken many things at home but she has been very supportive. She knows that I have always over prepared. Moreover, she has helped me with my diet, and always motivates me that I will do better.”
Further, Varun Sood mentioned that he trained under Rannvijay Singha. “When I shared the news with Rannvijay Bhai, luckily he’s our neighbour, he was very happy. We stay on the same floor. He trained me for 7 days so I’ve been trained by King of Roadies himself. I can’t even tell you how scared I was for those 7 days. I had blackouts, I felt like vomiting, because he trained me so intensely. But I am glad that he was equally enthusiastic about my participation just like me. Even he was very excited for the show just like me and kept messaging me that I shouldn't be scared because he is always there. He told me, ‘If you have any doubt just call and talk to me.’ He’s been there with me throughout like an older brother and I am glad to have him in my life,” said Varun.
