How much fees does Salman Khan charge for hosting the famous reality show like ‘Bigg Boss’, it becomes a big topic of discussion every season. This time too, it has been told in many new news that Salman is charging between Rs 120 to 150 crores to host the 19th season of ‘Bigg Boss’. But in a recent interview, the show’s chief producer Rishi Negi (who is from Banijay Asia and EndemolShine India Company) talked openly about Salman’s salary. Besides, he also told what is the truth behind the old allegations of Salman being partial to some contestants.

While talking to India Today, Rishi told that Salman Khan watches all the video footage inside the house before hosting the episode of ‘Weekend Ka Vaar’. He said, ‘Salman ji tries his best to watch the footage of the episode. If for some reason he is not able to watch it earlier, then on weekends we sit with him for an hour or two and watch all the important clips. With this, they get complete information about every major incident that happens in the house. They themselves see those events happening with their own eyes. Apart from this, many of his friends and acquaintances also watch the show. They keep calling Salman ji and giving their opinion and feedback.

This is how ‘Weekend Ka Vaar’ is prepared

Rishi further explained, ‘That’s why Salman ji has a very deep understanding of what is going on inside the house, what is happening with any contestant. They have their own special perspective. We who make shows, we also have our own way of looking at things. A lot of reactions and comments keep coming from the audience also. By combining all these things we prepare the Weekend Ka Vaar episode and tie it together.

nothing can be made of them

Salman has been accused of only repeating what the production team tells him. On this, Rishi clearly said, ‘Whoever knows Salman Khan even a little, can never believe that he can be made to do something in which he himself does not believe. They have their own different thinking about considering something as right or wrong. We first discuss thoroughly, sometimes even debate, and then after deciding everything we go to the show floor.

he deserves it

In the interview, Rishi was also asked a question about Salman’s fees. There are rumors that they take Rs 150 to 200 crores every season. He neither called this right nor wrong, but said, ‘This contract is a matter between Salman ji and Jio Hotstar company, so I have no information about it. But whatever rumors are going on, whatever amount is being said, Salman ji deserves every penny. The biggest happiness for me is that as long as he is present on my weekend episodes, I remain very happy.

They do the show by saying no every time

Every season Salman Khan says that now he will not host ‘Bigg Boss’. On this Rishi said, ‘But now it seems that Salman ji has developed a very deep emotional relationship with this show. When they are on stage, it is clearly visible. The way he participates in any debate or gives his opinion on any issue, it all comes from his heart.
