Just like the Hindi Bigg Boss, the craze for BB among the South audience is tremendous.
While there’s no official announcement regarding the upcoming season of the Salman Khan-led show, but Nagarjuna will return to host the 6th season of the Telugu version, which is set to premiere in September. Just like Khan increases his remuneration every year, seems like the Bangarraju star is also following the similar footsteps as he has increased his fees this year. Jumping from Rs 12 Crore, the superstar will receive a whopping amount for the latest season.
The controversial reality show will be airing on Star Maa from September 4, 2022. The makers recently released the trailer but contestant names weren’t revealed. It is being said that the team will share details about the same in the coming weeks. However, some probable contestant names are already making rounds.
