 Friends of the Khan swear by him, but more often than not people love-to-hate him. The actor may have mellowed over the years, but he is still a dormant volcano. And this is what makes him a complete entertainer.

So after host of stars making their debut on the small screen, it's the turn of the original style and youth icon… Salman Khan. Not one to follow the trend mindlessly, he is known to be different from his ilk. And when it comes to entertaining the classes and masses there's nobody like him. So, get ready to welcome Salman Khan into your living rooms every week with Dus Ka Dum—every Friday and Saturday at 9 p.m.
Money matters
Everybody is talking about the big money that Salman Khan is being paid for his debut on television. Rumours have it that he asked for a hike in remuneration after shooting the first couple of episodes. But those who know him closely insist that Salman is often ruled by his heart rather than by money.
Salman ka dum
During the mock rehearsals of Dus Ka Dum, one of the questions that stumped everyone was on cricket. Suddenly Salman reached for his cell phone and called the ex-captain of Team India, Azharuddin, and asked him for the answer. Nothing odd about that, except that Azharuddin happens to be the husband of Salman’s girlfriend of many years, Sangeeta Bijlani. Very few know that Salman is still in touch with Azhar and Sangeeta and they are very good friends.
The new lingo
If KBC and Big B made “Lock kar diya jaaye”a fad in the first
season of the game, then SRK had his own mantra, too, for
the second season. Now it’s Salman’s turn and he has come
out with “Chaap do”—which is already a rage. Don’t be surprised
if his little pigtail makes a style statement, too!
