”I am thankful to you sir for all that you have taught me. You are the most real person. I am sure my parents would be feeling very proud. Lots of love to everyone, my mandali and everyone,” Stan said to Khan after he was declared the winner.

The grand finale also saw Bollywood star Sunny Deol promote his upcoming film ”Gadar 2” along with co-star Ameesha Patel, and the team of the new show ”Tere Ishq Mein Ghayal”, headlined by Karan Kundra, in attendance.
