Apart from the contestants and dramatic twists, the new hosts—Farah Khan and Riteish Deshmukh—are also generating a lot of buzz. Both are receiving immense love from the audience. But do you know how much these stars are charging to host the show? Let’s find out.

Additionally, she has been part of shows like ‘Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa’, ‘Khatron Ke Khiladi’, ‘India’s Got Talent’, and ‘Indian Idol’.
