But having said that, there's another reason that makes the superstar so popular as a host and that is his tiffs with celebrity contestants.
Salman has never been kind to any contestant who has locked horns with him and has done his best to make his or her life miserable on the show. Be it threatening or abusing them, Salman believes in getting even. Here's a look at contestants who have fought with Salman on the reality show over the years:
Imam Siddiqui: Fashion and image manager Imam Siddiqui, who was one of the participants of reality show Bigg Boss 6, is one of the most controversial contestants who loved to pick fights with Salman Khan. He often offended the actor with his comments and rude behaviour. It is said that Salman was angry with him for openly flouting the rules and ignoring Salman when he asked him to pay heed to the rules. He had infuriated the host to such an extent that an angry Salman had threatened to beat him up after the shoot.
Sapna Bhavnani: Celebrity hairstylist Sapna Bhavnani had the guts to take on Salman Khan by calling him a 'serial woman-beater'. The tension between the two started when Salman questioned her claim that she was not on the show for prize money. This infuriated Sapna, who questioned his authority to insult her. She also dared Salman to throw her out of the show and even abused him to the extent that she called him a serial woman-beater.
Shakti Kapoor: Shakti Kapoor had agreed to become a contestant of Bigg Boss season 5 in the hope that it will resurrect his fading career. However to his dismay, he was ridiculed by hosts Salman and Sanjay Dutt. Both of them had expressed shock that Shakti was even invited to be a part of the show. Shakti Kapoor was hurt and had demanded that the hosts apologize to him. However, that never happened.
Pooja Bedi: Though the actress did not have any fight with Salman during the show, Pooja slammed the host for being partial after she was evicted. Pooja, who was a contestant of Bigg Boss 5, had taken to Twitter to slam Salman and accused him of favouring another contestant Mahek Chahal inside the
house. She also accused Salman of not treating Akashdeep Saigal properly by trying to demoralize and hurt him.
The list does not end here. There are many other contestants who have locked horns with Salman, the latest being VJ Andy from Bigg Boss 7. Will Salman's temper be tested once again inside the Bigg Boss house? Tell us what you think!
