Bigg
Boss
16:
Originally
supposed
to
end
in
January,
the
sixteenth
season
of
Colors
TV's
controversial
reality
series
got
extended
by
four
weeks
and
its
grand
finale
is
now
set
to
take
place
on
February
12.
Currently,
a
total
of
nine
contestants
are
currently
locked
inside
the
Bigg
Boss

house
-
Shiv

Choudhary,
MC
Stan,
Tina
Datta,
Shalin
Bhanot,
Archana
Gautam,
Sumbul
Touqeer
Khan,
and
Soundarya
Sharma.
While
fans
are
happy
with
the
extension
news,
several
reports
suggested
that
Salman
Khan
won't
be
able
to
host
the
Weekend
Ka
Vaar
episodes
of
the
extended
weeks.
While
he
shot
for
this
week's
episode
yesterday
(January
20),
the
superstar
won't
be
seen
in
the
next
two
weeks
due
to
professional
commitments.
Also,
there
were
speculations
that
either
Karan
Johar
or
Farah
Khan
might
replace
him
as
Bigg
Boss
16
host.
However,
looks
like
the
makers
have
something
else
in
their
mind.
According
to
an
ETimes
reports,
both
Farah
Khan
and
Karan
Johar
will
host
the
show
till
Salman's
return
in
the
grand
finale.
Yes,
you
read
that
right!
Reportedly,
Karan
Johar
and
Farah
Khan
will
divide
the
episodes
in
the
absence
of
the
Dabangg
superstar.
It
is
being
said
that
Salman
was
expecting
the
news
of
extension
as
the
current
season
is
performing
much
better
than
the
last
two
seasons.
He
had
done
it
in
the
past
as
well,
however,
this
time,
he
genuinely
had
no
dates.
He
has
already
given
is
dates
from
mid-January
for
other
projects.
He
communicated
it
to
the
makers
that
he
won't
be
able
to
continue
due
to
other
commitments
and
bowed
out.
However,
everything
is
fine
between
Salman
and
the
Bigg
Boss
makers.
Also,
the
actor
has
promised
that
he'll
return
to
host
the
show's
grand
finale.
Also,
it'll
be
interesting
to
see
both
Farah
and
Karan
replacing
him
as
hosts.
However,
an
official
announcement
is
still
awaited.
