Has Salman Khan brought down his exorbitant fee? At least for Bigg Boss ,the show he has been hosting for the last fifteen years?
There are reports that the Khan has lowered his price from Rs 250 crores to 150 crores.
However when this writer touched base with a source very close to the development, the truth appeared to be somewhat different. “Where do they get these figures from?The price cut which the Bigg Boss producers Endemol requested for reasons of falling ratings, was for around Rs 50 crores. Salman obliged them. Where is the question of a 100 crore cut being forced on him(Salman) when in fact he is most reluctant to host Bigg Boss anymore? For some years now,Salman has been asking to be relieved from his hosting duties on Bigg Boss. Unfortunately, Bigg Boss without Salman is as inconceivable as KBC without Mr Bachchan.”
But here is the thing: Salman Khan made it clear that he won’t host Bigg Boss from the next season onwards.Karan Johar is likely to take over.
