Salman Khan is the soul of Bigg Boss: Pratyusha Banerjee

Salman Khan is the soul of <i>Bigg Boss</i>: Pratyusha Banerjee
Pratyusha says Bigg Boss starts and ends with Salman
Mumbai: TV actress and former Bigg Boss contestant Pratyusha Banerjee believes Bollywood star Salman Khan, who hosts the reality show, is its soul. She says that without him, the show won't make any sense.

Her reaction was in response to rumours that Salman may not host the next season of the controversial show.

During an interview, when Pratyusha was asked to name any other Bollywood actor who could take over from Salman as the Bigg Boss host, she said:" I think Bigg Boss just starts and ends with Salman Khan. Salman is the soul of Bigg Boss."

"If he is not there in the show, then I think Bigg Boss does not really make any sense. We all want Salman Khan to host it," she added.

Salman joined Bigg Boss in its fourth season and even hosted its last season Bigg Boss Saath 7. However, he has reportedly refused to host its next (eighth) season.

Since then, names of various other Bollywood actors are doing rounds for hosting the next season of the controversial show. However, Salman's reason for not wanting to host Bigg Boss is still being speculated.

Meanwhile, Pratyusha's good friend and actress Kamya Punjabi, seen in the seventh season of Bigg Boss, also wants to see Salman as the host for the show.

"Although I have watched each and every season of Bigg Boss, I remember it since Khan saab (Salman Khan) started hosting it. Infact I eagerly used to wait for the weekend just to watch Khan saab's episodes of the show," Kamya said in an interview.

"So I remember Bigg Boss all because of him. We all love him very much, respect him and I would always want to see him as the host for Bigg Boss, she added.

The last season of Bigg Boss affected Salman's image as he was repeatedly accused of being partial to one of the contestants, Tanishaa Mukherji. He was even criticised for repeatedly taking digs at another contestant Kushal Tandon.
