From "The Kapil Sharma Show" to "Fear Factor: Khatron Ke Khiladi" these shows hosted by Bollywood celebrities have been continuously the source of controversy and entertainment. These shows are recognized by the superstar associated with it, also the controversy generated by them. Below is the list of 5 top Entertainment shows and their controversies hosted by Bollywood celebs:

1) The Kapil Sharma Show (Sony TV)

He has also hosted television comedy shows like Comedy Nights with Kapil, The Kapil Sharma Show, Family Time with Kapil. All of these shows are the previous versions of The Kapil Sharma Show, which saw a significant downfall after a dirty tussle between Kapil and Sunil Grover, another comedian who played supporting roles in the show. The show was then dissolved for almost one year. People slammed Kapil for misbehaving with Grover.

2) Kaun Banega Crorepati (Sony TV)

Kaun Banega Crorepati is an Indian version of the popular quiz show, "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?" Contestants start with easy questions asked by the host "Amitabh Bachchan", but as they move forward, the puzzles get more and more challenging. To help them out, they are given "lifelines", and all of this is done to win the prize money. Also, the third edition of this popular show saw an exception with Shahrukh Khan being the host of the show, but during those times the TRP dropped and then again from the next season Amitabh Bachchan became the star face for the show. Here, the controversy was the appointment of another celebrity which was rejected by the audience. 3) Bigg Boss (Colors TV)

The show hosted by Salman Khan has its large share of squabbles; contestants called "housemates" live together in a specially constructed house that is isolated from the outside world. This show feeds on controversies, but the top one remains from season 11 Zubair Khan's, attempted suicide by consuming pills after Salman blasted him for using abusive language against women of the house. In season 10 contestant Swami Om threw his urine on co-contestants Bani and Rohan. Later, the makers of the show evicted Swami Om. 4) Koffee With Karan (Star World India)

Koffee with Karan is an Indian talk show hosted by film producer and director Karan Johar. The controversy of cricketers K.L.Rahul and Hardik Pandya had been in the eye of a massive storm following their sexist and racist comments on women. In the show, Hardik Pandya and KL Rahul talked about their relationships, crushes, favourite movies, actors and actresses. As the matter heated up, both the cricketers were replaced with other players in international cricket, and even their contracts were terminated with several brands.


5) Fear Factor: Khatron Ke Khiladi (Colors TV)

In Fear, Factor contestants travel to exotic locales, where they face their worst fears and perform various death-defying stunts to win the competition. Rohit Shetty has hosted maximum seasons of this daring show till now, and celebrities like Akshay Kumar, Arjun Kapoor, and Priyanka Chopra have also hosted previous versions of the show.
