Salman Khan's fees thus exceed the budget of several Indian blockbuster films like SS Rajamouli and Prabhas' Baahubali (Rs 180 crore), Shraddha Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao's recent hit Stree 2 (Rs 60 crore), Rajinikanth's Jailer (Rs 200 crore), Shah Rukh Khan's Dunki (Rs 120 crore) and Ranbir Kapoor's Animal (Rs 100 crore). 

Meanwhile, Salman Khan's Bigg Boss 18 is set to have its grand premiere today at 9 pm. The superstar will be seen introducing the contestants to the audience and also unveiling the theme of 'time ka taandav'. the new promo showed Salman's younger self created by AI version and his older version who was shooting for Bigg Boss 38. Looking at Salman's stardom and the show's power to sustain TRPs, it would be no surprise if Bigg Boss runs for another 20 years or more.
