Actor Salman Khan is looking forward to hosting Bigg Boss OTT 2 and will make sure that the contestants don't misuse the freedom from censorship. On Friday, Salman promoted the show in Mumbai and interacted with the press. Sharing his thoughts about hosting the digital season of Bigg Boss, Salman assured that he won't let the content go against Indian culture.
Salman told the media, "I hope the show is not too much uncensored or unfiltered. Agar ho raha hoga, toh I will control everything on my own." He further added, "I feel the show shouldn't go against Indian culture and should follow it. That's why I am a part of it"
For the second season, Khan has replaced Karan Johar as the host. When Salman was asked the reason behind the replacement, he said, "Karan and Farah (Khan) were not available to host the show. They were very busy. Hence, I had to do the OTT version." Salman again shared his concern with the show, and added, "Main OTT par aisa kuch hone nahi dunga, which is against our culture... I won't let it happen."
