Bollywood star Salman Khan, who returned to television with the 16th season of popular reality show Bigg Boss, recently addressed the rumours of him charging a remuneration of Rs 1000 crore to host the show at a press conference.

Responding to the speculations of him charging the massive amount, “Salman Khan said, “All those reports about my fees are untrue. If I ever get paid Rs 1000 crore I would never work in my life. But there will be a day when I will be paid this amount. If I get paid this amount I have so many other expenses like lawyers that I actually need them. My lawyers are no less than Salman Khan. My earning is not even one fourth of it. These reports are read by income tax and ED department too.”

Adding that he does not wish to return to Bigg Boss every single year, the actor mentioned, “There are times when I get irritated and I tell the channel that I don't want to host the show. But they don't have the choice so they come back to me. If they had choice they would have replaced me long back. They would never come to replace me. There are a lot of people who have replaced me.” Salman Khan has been hosting the controversial reality show since 2010.
