Salman Khan is returning to host Bigg Boss season 20, and like always, the excitement is sky-high. While the list of participants has been kept top secret until the day of the premiere, rumours began soon after the announcement. And this year, one of the names doing the rounds was that of IPL founder Lalit Modi. As the reports surfaced, they also caught Modi’s eye, and he was quick to call out the report. The notice also confirms that Modi has not shared anything about his alleged participation with any publication.
Calling the reports false, IPL founder and renowned businessman Modi has firmly denied the reports as he warned of legal action against those who continue to spread this news.
Taking to his X account, Modi reacted to the news and wrote, “FAKE NEWS. PERIOD. I have NOT been approached for Bigg Boss 20. I am NOT participating in Bigg Boss 20. And I have NO intention of doing so. Amazing how a completely fabricated story can become ‘news’ without anyone bothering to ask the person concerned."
