'Television is too much hard work'
Salman Khan loves his once-a-year brush with the small screen, thanks to reality show Bigg Boss, but taking up a fiction show seems too cumbersome for him.
Nevertheless, he admits that television is a bigger medium than films.
"Television is too much of hard work. Reality shows are about one season, but when you do a serial you are stuck in it for many years. But I should say the popularity of TV is a lot more than Bollywood," Salman admits.
"The kind of stuff that I want to do on television, I am already doing that," adds the 47-year-old. He recently wrapped up the sixth season of Bigg Boss.
He has been associated with the show as its host for the last three seasons and seems to be loving it. Salman admits the show has been as dicey for the host as it is for the contestants, who were locked inside an isolated house without any communication with the outside world.
"It is a dicey show for the host himself. I ended up scolding (the contestants) and while scolding, sometimes it became a little too much. So this is a very dicey situation because (as a host), I fail to understand whether to react or not," he says. Salman had first turned TV host for game show called 10 Ka Dum.
A race against time
Push' airs on HBO at 6.55 pm on January 22. In this movie, Nick (played by Colin Ford) and Cassie (essayed by Dakota Fanning) are two young Americans with telekinetic and clairvoyant abilities.
They must race against time to find Kira (played by Camilla Belle), a girl in Hong Kong, before a shadowy government organisation called Division does. Catch the movie to find out whether they manage this task.
