Fear Factor was a huge success for the channel. And they were thrilled with their choice of the host. The connect was perfect as Akki is an action-junkie. And he was professionalism personified. A natural in front of the camera, the actor went that extra mile and was also involved in the creative aspects of the show as well.”
