Former shark at Shark Tank India and ex-director of fintech giant BharatPe, Ashneer Grover (42), had a faceoff with BiggBoss host Salman Khan (58), a show he had earlier claimed he would only do if the producers paid him more than the Bollywood star. In his chat with 93.4 FM, the Doglapan author had remarked that only failed individuals go on the show and not successful people.

He had also stated that Salman was considered a brand ambassador for his startup but dropped the idea as the latter wouldn’t reduce his fee. However, the maverick entrepreneur is making his BiggBoss debut in the 18th season of the show. In the recently released ‘Weekend Ka War’ promo, a war of words erupts between the Tiger of the tinsel town and the Shark of the business world.

Unlike his usual dominating self, Ashneer appeared rather demure during the show, as shown in the brief clip, where Salman grills him over his past remarks. Mere baare me kehte huye suna hai that you have signed me. Sab figures bhi aapne galat bataye.

Toh phir yeh dogalapan kya hai? Salman aur Ashneer Grover mein honge fiery conversation. Kya hoga ace Entrepreneur ka jawaab to Bhaijaan’s teekhe allegations? Dekhiye #BiggBoss18 Weekend Ka Vaar Shanivaar aur Ravivaar raat 9.30 baje @colorsTV aur #JioCinema par.
