Mumbai:May 24,2008- After Aamir Khan and Amitabh Bachchan took on blogging, the other inhabitants of B-Town have woken up to the power of writing on the web.

Salman Khan will blog on a Blogspot website run at Sony Entertainment, the producers of the reality television show Dus Ka Dum. Sallu has already posted two blogs on http://duskadum.blogspot.com that too from Australia, where he is shooting at the moment.

Write choice

A source close to the actor says, “After Salmanbhai scripted Veer, he has taken a liking for writing and blogs being the flavor of the day, it seems to be an obvious choice for him”.

The first two blogs are about how he got on board to do the game show. Sources at Sony promise that the actor-turned-host will blog every day and will also talk about  other stuff besides the show.

Excerpts from Sallu’s blog:

Day 1
I still remember the day when my brother Sohail Khan, who always dreams big, thinks different, brought the proposal to anchor a show for Sony Entertainment Television. I had my reservations. The idea sounded so impractical that I rejected it even without giving it much thought. All my decisions are based on my instinct and some people think that I am too moody and cynical. But believe me I have been guided by my instincts, and my heart, all my life! I do not depend too much on intelligence, analysis and calculations…

However, Sohail, the eternal optimist, and family friend Ajay Chhabaria (both have tremendous patience and endless power of persuasion) kept asking me to look into the format closely. Their patience and perseverance paid dividends…
So here I am convinced & ready to go…
The format attracted me…and how! Stay connected. Will be back tomorrow. 

Day 2
The second thing that attracted me to the format was the informality of the show — it goes to such an extent that the role of anchor and contestants are reversed at times and also interchangeable. I hate formality and behavioral rituals. I like to be direct.
Beating around the bush is not my cup of tea. The inherent elements of humour and informality in the format made me think very positively about 10 Ka Dum.
The very essence in 10 Ka Dum is very positive…
The greatest temptation to do the show was…see u tomorrow.
