As Salman Khan, Akshay Kumar and Shah Rukh Khan’s respective TV shows get lined up competing with each other in near future, it will be an interesting TRP game
Salman Khan, Shah Rukh Khan and Akshay Kumar, three of the biggest celebs and cinema stars in Bollywood are descending on the small screen with three different shows this year. Salman, who will continue his run as the host of ‘Bigg Boss 11’ comments that others are going to have a tough time! “Shah Rukh is a great host. He has his own charisma and swag. Akki is also really good and has great comic timing. He is very witty. I think it is going to be quite a tough competition, for them,” quips Salman with a big grin. The actor is apparently charging a whopping Rs 11 crore for every episode that he appears on. As if almost confirming the numbers, Raj Nayak, COO, Viacom 18, which owns Colors channel states, “Salman doesn’t come cheap.”
Salman Khan will make weekend appearances on the reality show ‘Bigg Boss 11’, which will start airing from October 1. On the other hand, Akshay Kumar is gearing up to judge ‘The Great Indian Laughter Challenge’, which will feature several comedians from across the country. Shah Rukh Khan in contrast is approaching TV in a more serious way. The actor will handle ‘TED Talks India: Nayi Soch’, featuring inspirational speakers.
