The
wait
is
finally
over
as
Jr
NTR
is
all
set
to
host
the
new
season
of

Meelo
Koteeswarulu.
In
a
recently
released
promo,
the
makers
announced

the
highly
anticipated
game
show
will
start
airing
on
August
22.
The

episode
will

Though
there
were
rumours
about
the
popular
game
show
going
on
air
from
August
15
on
the
occasion
of
Indian
Independence
Day,
the
latest
promo
has
indeed
quashed
the
buzz.
Let
us
tell
you
that
actors
Nagarjuna
Akkineni
and
Chiranjeevi
had
hosted
(individually)
the
previous
seasons
of
the
game
reality
show.
Interestingly,
Jr
NTR
will
be
returning
to
mini-screens
after
almost
5
years
of
Bigg
Boss
Telugu.
For
the
unversed,
the
superstar
has
hosted
the
first-ever
season
of
BB
Telugu.
His
oratory
skill
was
highly
appreciated
by
the
mini-screen
audiences
then
and
his
show
even
turned
out
to
be
the
most
loved
season
of
all
time.
Evaru
Meelo
Koteeswarulu
is
the
Telugu
version
of
Amitabh
Bachchan's
Kaun
Banega
Crorepati.
On
a
related
note,
Jr
NTR
is
being
paid
a
whopping
remuneration
of
Rs
10
crore
and
as
per
the
deal
signed,
he
will
be
hosting
a
minimum
of
50
and
a
maximum
of
60
episodes
of
the
show.
Meanwhile,
the
actor
is
currently
busy
with
SS
Rajamouli's
magnum
opus

also
featuring

Charan,
Alia
Bhatt
and

Devgn
in
the
lead
roles.
He
