Regarded
as
the
most
celebrated
and
lovable
superstar
of
the
nation,
Salman
Khan
takes
things
a
notch
higher
by
being
a
part
of
it.
He
is
one
of
the
few
actors
to
have
taken
a
reality
show
on
a
level
that
is
unimaginable.
His
larger
than
life
persona
and
his
superstardom
have
boomed
the
TRPs
every
time
he's
on
air.
It's
a
challenge
for
anybody
to
keep
hosting
a
reality
show
for
a
year
but
such
is
the
power
and
charisma
of
Salman
Khan
that
he
has
managed
to
do
it
for
a
decade
and
yet
keep
his
cool
and
unflappable
charm
intact.
The
only
other
megastar
who
enjoys
such
popularity
is
Amitabh
Bachchan
on
Kaun
Banega
Crorepati
which
is
a
regular
quiz
show
and
without
its
share
of
debates.
It
is
to
Salman's
credit
that
he
handles
all
the
controversies
and
heated
arguments
with
savoir-faire,
grace,
and
tact.
When
he
talks,
the
contestants
listen.
When
he
comes
on
air
to
host
the
Weekend
Ka
Vaar,
the
world
almost
comes
to
a
standstill
where
he
can
even
be
brutally
honest.
Thanks
to
Salman's
mega-stardom,
the
show
has
reached
213
million
viewers
on
television.
It
gained
10.5
million
impressions
in
the
final
episode
with
four
hashtags
trending
worldwide
on
Twitter,
the
same
night
and
Bigg
Boss
13
was
the
highest-rated
one
ever.
The
show
has
broken
many
television
records.
Over
the
last
decade,
Salman
Khan
has
turned
the
show
on
his
head.
His
unique
style
of
hosting
has
made
the
show
almost
like
one
of
Bollywood's
hugely
entertaining
movies
where
Salman
has
a
direct
connection
with
everyone
-
from
all
age
groups,
masses
and
classes
with
a
pan
Indian
appeal.
Thanks
to
the
immense
popularity
of
the
show's
host,
it
has
spawned
other
regional
variations
of
it.
And
strong
brand
partnerships
for
the
channel,
Colors
TV,
including
increasing
its
own
reach
across
India.
That
today,
Salman
(besides
Big
B)
is
the
most
successful
superstar
and
the
Big
Boss
of
Indian
television
is
indisputable.
As
he
scales
new
heights
with
every
season,
the
show
becomes
bigger
and
better
with
Salman's
grand
surprises,
valuable
creative
inputs,
impromptu
improvisations
and
interesting
changes
made
in
the
format
every
year.
