Bigg Boss Scoop: Show Gets Three-Week Extension, Salman To Be Paid 8.5 Crore Per Episode

Bigg Boss season 13 is what everyone has been talking about for the past two months. Our televisions are on and we are completely hooked to the drama that ensues within the Bigg Boss house. The show was originally set to conclude in January but has now been extended by another five weeks. And that means you get to watch some more drama till February now.

Also, according to media reports, the channel and the show producers are paying the host, Salman Khan a whopping extra two crore per episode. “Salman made it very clear that he didn’t want to extend his stint on Bigg Boss due to his other film commitments (post-production of Dabangg 2, shooting of Radhe: Your Most Wanted Bhai). However, the channel (Colors) lured him to stay on with added zeroes on his paycheck,” revealed a source to an entertainment website.
