Shakti Kapoor enjoyed his ‘Bigg Boss’ journey, and even earned respect from all the housemates.

The 59-year-old actor was banned from the industry after a sting operation in March 2005 exposed him seeking sexual favors. However, the ban was lifted some time later as the allegations against Shakti were not proven.

Shakti upset with Salman
Interestingly, Shakti Kapoor is quite upset with the way ‘Bigg Boss 5’ host, Salman Khan, greeted him on the show.

Miffed with Salman’s behavior, Shakti Kapoor said, "Salman Khan owes me an apology! Firstly, he and Sanjay Dutt didn't greet me, whereas they had accorded this courtesy to all the inmates.

“And then Salman said 'Bigg Boss ko man-na padega! Shakti Kapoor jaise logon ko apne ghar bulaya, hum toh kabhi na bulayen!'

“I would like to tell him that even if invites me to his house, I may not want to go there! He made those scathing remarks without any provocation, so he has to say sorry!"

Reportedly, their cold war is not new.

If sources are to be believed, the war began when Salman refused to help Shakti Kapoor’s son Siddhant make his Bollywood debut.

Shakti wants Siddharth to win ‘Bigg Boss 5’s
The star, who managed to improve his image over the years, wants Siddharth to win the show.

Revealing about his stay and signing amount in the house, Shakti Kapoor told TOI, "I enjoyed my stay in the house, where my signing amount was much more than the winner's booty, and my weekly payment was as much as any inmate's total stay package. But now, I see people doing all kinds of antics for TRPs.

“In fact, there you have to survive in weird situations with hardly any sleep or enough food. So, many people react wildly in those adverse circumstances.

“I'm glad I'm out, but I really want Siddharth to win the show.”
