Bigg Boss 12: Not Salman Khan, THIS actor was first choice to host the show

Bigg Boss 12 is all set to return to Indian television with new surprises. The show features celebrity as well as common contestants locked inside a luxurious house with no contact with the outer world. But, the main attraction of the show remains its host Salman Khan, who has been a key player of the Bigg Boss show since the last eight years.

At a press conference of Bigg Boss 12 in Goa, Salman revealed that the one who was considered to sign 'Bigg Boss' before him was Shah Rukh Khan. He didn't know about this. ''Shah Rukh was the original choice for 'Bigg Boss''.

"Earlier he had shoulder injury and he was shooting somewhere in Prague so, he couldn't make it... and he couldn't do the show. That's how I got 'Bigg Boss'', he added. 

Both Salman and Shah Rukh recently appeared on Dus Ka Dum's finale episode and their fans loved it. 

Salman Khan spoke about working together with Shah Rukh Khan in a project and said, "We will work together if we get a good script. He was generous to appear in 'Tubelight'. You will also see me in 'Zero'''.
