There have been several speculations regarding the contestants list as it is being said that several popular celebrities have been approached for the show. Also, a few celebrities have expressed their wish to participate as well. However, none of them have confirmed their participation. As everyone is aware the show is incomplete without our host Salman Khan. Of course, Bigg Boss 16 will be hosted by the Dabangg Khan himself. Another speculation that is doing the rounds is the actor's fees.

Like every year, this year also, there are rumours that Salman has hiked his fee! As per Tellychakkar report, this time Salman apparently has hiked his fees three times!

According to the report, "Salman has asked for a three-time hiked fee considering that he hasn't got a big hike in the past few seasons and this time he is adamant that until he doesn't get a hike he won't be hosting the show, though there is no confirmation on the same."

If the reports turn out to be true, then Salman might get total payment of Rs 1,050 Crore for hosting Bigg Boss 15, as he was apparently getting Rs 350 Crore in Bigg Boss 15. However, there is no confirmation regarding the same.
