Mumbai, August 20, 2026 (Yes Punjab News)
Actor and Bigg Boss narrator Vijay Vikram Singh believes Salman Khan has become an integral part of the reality show’s identity, saying it is now “very difficult” to imagine the franchise in its current form without the superstar.
Speaking exclusively to IANS, Vijay said the show could technically continue without any individual, but Salman’s long association with the franchise has created a strong connection between the actor and its audience.
“No, no, I can be totally separated. If you don’t hear this tomorrow afternoon at 12 o’clock, then also your life will go on. If Mr. Khan is not there, then it is possible with the show. So, a lot of people are connected because Mr. Khan is there,” he said.
Elaborating on Salman’s contribution, Vijay added, “Salman, sir, is an integral part of the show. And without him, it is very difficult to imagine the show now. Like, it is very difficult to imagine Khatron Ke Khiladi without Rohit Shetty sir.”
Salman Khan first took over as the host of Bigg Boss with its fourth season in 2010 and subsequently became one of the most recognisable faces associated with the franchise. He continued as host through Season 17 and is set to return for the upcoming Season 18.
Before Salman, the show was hosted by Arshad Warsi in Season 1, Shilpa Shetty in Season 2 and Amitabh Bachchan in Season 3.
Vijay Vikram Singh has also maintained a long association with Bigg Boss, serving as the narrator for several seasons. His distinctive voice has become another recognisable element of the reality show’s presentation.
