Anushka Manchanda is the winner of Khatron Ke Khiladi which airs September

We just luuuurve letting the cat out of the bag. So here goes: It is reliably learnt that Anushka Manchanda (ex-Viva bandmate, now a playback singer of some recall) has won the sequel of Colors' Khatron Ke Khiladi due to start airing September 2009.

Apparently, the entire season's episodes were shot in South Africa in April itself (rather prematurely) due to suitable weather conditions.

Sources say it would have been impossible for host Akshay Kumar and his 13 deviyaan to shoot in Cape Town later once the rains set in.

The good news is that Akshay Kumar has participated in a lot of daring stunts this time as compared to the previous season.

Though the contestants have been kept under wraps, it's very reliably learnt the girls this time include actress-model-sports commentator Mandira Bedi, actress Rupali Ganguly, model Pia Trivedi, actress Shveta Salve, model Carol Gracias, actress Sonali Kulkarni, modelu2013item girl Bruna Abdallah, model Rozza Catalano and model-actress Jesse Randhawa.

The contestants have been sworn to secrecy until further notice.
