Bigg Boss season 20 is set for a grand premiere this weekend, with actor Salman Khan returning as the show’s host. As fans look forward to the new season, questions continue to surround the actor’s hosting fee.
Unconfirmed reports suggest that Salman Khan is charging Rs 120 crore for the entire 20th season. Neither the show’s producers nor the actor’s team has officially verified these figures.
Salman Khan has been hosting the reality show since season 4, which aired in 2010. His remuneration has risen steadily over the years, starting from a reported Rs 2.5 crore per season in his initial years.
Speculative reports suggest he earned around Rs 200 crore for season 17, Rs 250 crore for season 18, and between Rs 120 crore and Rs 150 crore for his 15-week stint in season 19. However, all these figures remain unverified estimates.
Bigg Boss season 20 premieres on Colors TV and JioHotstar on September 6 at 9 PM. Probable contestants for this season include Karan Wahi, Mahhi Vij, Jannat Zubair, Geeta Basra, Mr Faisu, Mary Kom, Isha Rikhi, Showik Chakraborty, and Arishfa Khan.
