WHAT! Karan Mehra becomes the part of Bigg Boss 10 at a remuneration of 1 crore

India’s most controversial reality show Bigg Boss 10 has witnessed a successful opening on Sunday in presence of Bollywood fame Deepika Padukon and the host Salman Khan. Before opening the doors to participants, Salman Khan introduced all the 15 contestants, including commoners and celebrities. The first episode captured many special moments.

YRKKH’s ex-Naitik (Karan Mehra) remained to be the highlight of the opening episode as he reportedly charged Rs. 1 crore to be a part of the show. The actor left Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai months back, but there is no decline in his popularity yet. He still remains to be one of the most popular and highest-paid on screen figures. A whooping remuneration of Rs. 1 crore is what speaks a lot about his growing popularity and increasing demand among TV show makers. If reports are to be believed, Karan didn’t want to be a part of Bigg Boss 10. But, a lucrative offer made him to join the show. After a lot of cajoling and negotiation, Karan Mehra agreed with the makers to come on the show. However, what made the makers to be persuasive about Karan’s participation was his far-flung popularity.

The Colors team had met Karan a couple of times before his confirmation, and there was a lot of discussion about his remuneration. A sum of one crore as remuneration is too lucrative to say no to any TV show. The reason why makers approached him to join the show was his soaring popularity as a TV actor. With his entry in Bigg Boss 10 house, the makers are looking to draw Star Plus viewers towards the show. Viewers might enjoy Karan’s entry in the show, while there might be a murmur amongst the other celebrity contestants about his remuneration. Now this would be interesting to see how Karan fares in Bigg Boss 10 house.
