Hiten Tejwani talks about TV actors earning Rs. 1 core within a year
In a recent chat with Digital Commentary, Hiten Tejwani opened up about the gruelling work hours that go behind the scenes. He explained how actors earn their income in television and gave an estimate of how they can even earn in crores if they put in some extra hours of work. Hiten was quoted as saying:
“Depends on what they are charging. If we calculate by say, for example, a minimum of Rs. 7 lakhs for 30 days of shoot, then that makes it Rs 84 lakhs in a year. Plus there may be some ads or any other performances- like some dance perforce- then they will pay you a little extra. So it can go up to Rs 1 crore.”
