On the rumour that his fees added up to Rs 1,000 crore, he said: "I would never get this much and if in reality I get this amount, I don`t think I`d be working. I have a lot of expenses like on lawyers and because of these rumours, income-tax people will start noticing me"

Salman Khan candidly answered questions about the many rumours that are circulating about him, starting with nixing the theory that he wasn`t going to host `Bigg Boss 16` and that his fees have touched Rs 1,000 crore.
Speaking to journalists at the virtual media briefing, Salman said: "Well, I am often asked if I am doing the show or not, so I get irritated sometimes and tell these people that I don`t want to do the show. But these people are helpless as they feel if not me, then who else. So, they have no choice." By `they`, the star obviously meant the producers of the show.
