There has been much speculation about the salary of Salman Khan this year for Bigg Boss 16. Finally, at the launch of the new season of big boss today, Sept. 26, Salman debunked all the rumours, stating: “If I got this amount (₹1000 crore), I wouldn’t work in my life. I mean it. It’s not even a quarter of it. But even if I have it, I have too much expenses like attorney fees, my attorney fees are very high. So there it is. And what you all don’t realize when the media and fan clubs are circulating these stories is that the income tax also notices all this and then I can be asked questions.”
Salman Khan Addresses Rumors He’s Not Hosting Bigg Boss 16
Another rumor circulating before the Bigg Boss 16 promo was released was that Salman Khan was not returning as host. When questioned about it by Gauahar Khan, who even anchored the launch of the new season of Bigg Boss, the superstar replied, “I get annoyed and tell them I’m not doing it (hosting Bigg Boss). But they (the channel) have no one else, so they have to come to me. Otherwise, if they had an option, they would never come to me. I would never go to myself for these things. So I don’t blame them if these articles are circulating.”
