To which Anil said that nobody can really replace Salman.
Anil Kapoor went on to add , ¡°Munawar, this is a very wrong question, which has been put to me. No one can replace Salman Khan, and no one can replace Anil Kapoor as well. Salman is very happy. I spoke to him earlier about this. Let¡¯s not create any controversy, that will happen in Bigg Boss¡¯ house.¡±
He also said as per IndianExpress, ¡°I¡¯ve done many movies, and judged shows but have never done something like Bigg Boss. I¡¯m very excited for it. My friends and family members are very excited about the show. I have taken inspiration from my wife. When she got to know that I was doing this show, she asked me if I¡¯d seen her handle the house or not. I agreed to her and she then asked me to handle the Bigg Boss house in the same way. I am just very excited,¡± he said.
