Bigg Boss is one of the most popular TV shows in India, broadcast in various languages with different teams and setups each year.
The Telugu audience, in particular, focuses on Nagarjuna hosting the show, while in Tamil, Kamal Haasan hosted Season 7. Now, the question arises about the host for Season 8.
Here's the latest information:
Kamal Haasan reportedly earned a staggering Rs 130 crore for hosting the seventh season of Bigg Boss Tamil.
As fans eagerly anticipate Season 8, industry sources reveal that Vijay Sethupathi is set to be the new host, commanding a fee of Rs 60 crore.
This amount is significantly lower—less than half of what Kamal Haasan was paid—making Sethupathi a more cost-effective choice for the producers.
Sethupathi’s agreement includes his presence only on weekends throughout the 100-day season, which contributes to the reduced fee.
Despite this adjustment, his star power and popularity are expected to attract substantial viewership, maintaining the show's high profile.
The decision to opt for Sethupathi over Haasan appears to be a strategic move to manage production costs while still ensuring the show's appeal remains strong.
Fans can look forward to seeing how Sethupathi brings his unique style to the popular reality show, promising an engaging season ahead.
