Bollywood star Salman Khan has quietly replaced Akashay Kumar as the new host  of Fear Factor: Khatron Ke Khiladi reality show in its fourth edition.


According to a media report, Salman shot a promo for KKK4 in Bangkok while shooting for Bhushan Kumar's film Ready.

"He would never shoot a promo unless he had signed a contract. The channel is debating on how to break the news to Akshay who was kicked about hosting the show's fourth season”, a source told the newspaper.

“After successful runs with 10 Ka Dum and Bigg Boss 4 and his runaway hit, Dabangg, Salman is on a hot streak. He's friends with Colors' head, Ashwini Yardi. He has hinted on giving them a bargain — a double deal for Big Boss 5 and KKK 4. The clincher could be BB4' s higher TRPs than Akshay has ever had on his show for the same channel”, the source said.

Colors is exploring the exit clause as Akki has already shot for a promo for KKK4 in South Africa in February, the report said.

Says a source close to Akshay, “ He has heard the rumours of Salman replacing him but is choosing not to believe them till the channel tells him so. He refuses to believe that Salman would do something so underhand.”

For Sony's 10 Ka Dum, Salman was paid Rs 90 crore for 100 episodes.

When he realised that Akshay was being paid Rs 1.5 crore for 16 episodes to host Colors' Khatron Ke Khiladi, he was upset. Sallu refused to come on the sets until his price was hiked. Sony was in a fix.

The show with Salman had already been announced and the promos were to soon go on air. It was finally agreed that Salman should be paid a crore per episode, making him richer by Rs 104 crore for 100 episodes!
