Akshay Kumar back again as the host of KKK4!

Akshay Kumar, on whom Khatron Ke Khiladi was most likely named after, will return as the host of the popular reality show replacing Priyanka Chopra for season 4.

While there were rumours that Ajay Devgan was keen on hosting the show, Akshay was eventually signed as he had prior experience as a host. Ajay on the other hand has so-far never been a part of any television show.

Priyanka Chopra was the host of season 3 and insiders say, the channel wasn’t too impressed with the TRP’s generated by Priyanka presence.

Season 4 will be shot in Cape Town, South Africa in March 2011.
