Salman Khan has signed Rs 500 crore deal with Star TV Network India for the television broadcast rights of his upcoming films.

All of Salman Khan's recent films (Wanted, Ready, Dabangg 2, Bodyguard and Ek Tha Tiger) earned over Rs 100 crore at the Box Office. Speaking about the deal, Hemal Jhaveri, general manager at Star Gold, told IANS, "Yes, we have signed a deal with Salman Khan and whoever asks me why Salman, I would only say why not Salman Khan? His past Box Office record has been outstanding and his film, which has been premiered on TV, is exceptional. He still has the highest record for his film Bodyguard which had the highest rating so far."

According to the deal, the channel would own exclusive TV broadcast rights of Salman's all new films beginning from the year 2013. Meanwhile, Salman Khan is once again facing health problems and is likely to fly to the US for treatment.
