ScoutOp, also known as Tanmay Singh, has entered Salman Khan-hosted Bigg Boss 20 house. The popular esports player and content creator revealed that he earns around Rs. 30 lakh per month, leaving both viewers and host Salman Khan stunned. Salman asked ScoutOp whether he plays esports for fun or as a profession. ScoutOp replied, “Sir, kick milta hai.” Salman was left surprised after learning about his earnings and asked, “30 lakh white mein?”
While welcoming ScoutOp to the Bigg Boss 20 house, Salman asked, “Ye esport khelte ho aap, ye maje ke liye khelte ho ya profession hai?” ScoutOp replied, “Sir, kick milta hai.” Salman then asked, “Kitna aata hai?” ScoutOp answered the question in Salman’s ear. However, Salman repeated it aloud in disbelief, saying, “30? Mahine ka Rs. 30 lakh?” ScoutOp confirmed that he earns around Rs. 30 lakh every month through esports.
ScoutOp further revealed that he receives his earnings through cheques and claimed that it is all his hard-earned white money. Reacting to his revelation, Salman praised him and said, “Kya baat hai. To phir bolne ka na Rs. 30 lakh wo bhi white mein...” Salman then jokingly encouraged the kids watching to start playing the game.
