Bigg Boss 13 is going great due to which the makers have decided to extend the reality show by five more weeks, so the grand finale will be aired in the month of February. As the duration is longer now, the makers have also reportedly increased Salman’s fee by Rs 2 crore, making it Rs 8.5 crore per episode.

Salman has other commitments:
According to a leading daily, the “Sultan” actor clarified to the makers that he is not in the mood of extending his duration on the popular reality show because he has other projects lined up, such as “Radhe: Your Most Wanted Bhai”. Nevertheless, as the channel and makers want to retain Salman to host the extended episodes too, they are leaving no stone unturned to tempt him. Also read about, Rashami Desai Wiki, Arti Singh Wiki.
Salman refuses to host Bigg Boss initially in each season:
According to a source, Bollywood superstar Salman initially rejects the offer of hosting Bigg Boss every year and then he is tempted with an increased remuneration. Interestingly, he takes home a bigger amount than the total of what all the anchors of regional languages get as their fee.

The makers have brought exciting twists and turns in the reality show and a mid-season finale is indeed one of the biggest experiments. All these stuffs along with fights, emotions, romance, drama and other essential elements made Bigg Boss 13 a success and probably the same is the reason that the show is getting an extended time period.
