Salman Khan has got a busy year ahead. Not that he was having it easy all this while! He has just returned from his hectic month-long stage show Dabangg: The Tour Reloaded and got on to shoot the special celebrity episodes for his Sony TV reality show, Dus Ka Dum. The actor, whose upcoming next, Bharat, has kicked-off in Mumbai, is now gearing up to begin shooting his next TV show... none other than Bigg Boss.

Salman is returning as the host of the popular Colors TV show for the ninth year in a row. The latest report in a leading daily suggests that the actor has blocked his dates for the shoot of the show's promo in August.

The report quotes a source saying, "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".

This means that Salman starts working on BB 12 while he will also simultaneously be working on his current show, Dus Ka Dum, which is going to end in August itself.

The report also mentions that the sets for Bigg Boss 12 are under construction and the auditions for the contestants this season are also undergoing. The theme this year is 'familial jodis' and the hunt for the most impeccable ones around is on by the makers.

Well, seems like it's a lot piling up for Salman but nothing that he can't deal with. After all, he's the only Dabangg Khan we know!
