Everyone is talking of Akshay Kumar as the new king of Bollywood after the success of the numerologically-spelt Singh is Kinng. But he may have claimed that throne even earlier. The actor made Rs 1.5 crore for anchoring each episode of Khatron Ke Khiladi, the reality show based on the international hit Fear Factor. That is thrice what Amitabh Bachchan, who Kumar regards as the only king of Bollywood, earned for an episode of Kaun Banega Crorepati's first season, the game show that turned around the fortunes of Star Plus eight years ago. According to industry estimates, Kumar's show cost Colors Rs 2.5 crores an episode. The show had 16 episodes and was shot in South Africa with models and television stars doing some hard-to-digest stunts.
