Salman's latest appearance as the host of the show was "Bigg Boss 17", which aired last year with comic Munawar Faruqui emerging as the winner.

The superstar, however, didn't host the third OTT edition of "Bigg Boss". His frequent co-star and friend Anil Kapoor filled in for him.

Salman has been hosting "Bigg Boss" since its fourth season, which premiered in 2010.
