Host's Deep Involvement:
Negi emphasized that Salman is far from just being a puppet fed lines. Before the 'Weekend Ka Vaar' shoot, the actor ensures he is fully aware of the house dynamics.
"Salman does try to catch episodes, obviously. If he is not able to watch, he watches an hour or two of footage with us on the weekend, to go through all the big points that have happened in the house," Negi stated.
No Scripting, Only Genuine Reaction:
He completely dismissed the idea that the production team can make Salman say anything against his will, a claim often linked to the use of an earpiece. “Whoever knows Salman Khan, it's not possible to make him say anything that he doesn’t believe in, right? He has his own point of view on whether that particular thing is right or wrong. We discuss, debate, and then we go on the floor,” Negi explained.

"I think now even he has a huge emotional connection with this show," Negi shared. "And that you see it playing out when he is on stage because, you know, the way he gets involved in a discussion or the way he gets involved in a mudda (issue), as we call it, is because it comes from within."
