While Salman Khan’s gameshow Dus Ka Dumdaar Weekend is still on, with the finale expected to air in August, the actor is gearing up for the 12th season of his reality show, Bigg Boss. The makers are targeting a mid-September premiere for the show, which has been staging its comeback in October for the last three seasons.

A source connected to the show informs, “Salman has already blocked his dates to shoot the promotional videos in the first week of August. They will be shot at Mehboob Studios. As per current discussions, the Bigg Boss 12 finale will happen around the last week of December.”

Meanwhile, Rohit Shetty’s stunt reality show Khatron Ke Khiladi, which is currently being shot in Argentina, will go on air in January, taking over the 9 pm slot from Salman’s show.

This year, Bigg Boss returns with the theme of familial jodis and auditions have been on for the past few months. Work on the Lonavala sets has already begun as well. Salman will be juggling between the shoot of the show and Ali Abbas Zafar’s under-production Bharat.
