Former Bollywood Actress to Get Rs.1.25 Crore Per Episode on Television

February 23, 2016 by BollywoodPresents Team

It seems once you get a break in Bollywood, you remain a star throughout, even if you’re away from the limelight. Remember actress Raveena Tandon? Although she’s not very old, its been a long time since she has acted as the lead heroine in a film. However, that doesn’t stop her from charging exorbitant amount of money on television (another booming industry).

Reportedly, Raveena Tandon will be paid Rs.1.25 crore per episode for judging an upcoming dance reality show “Shine of India”.

This is not the first time that Raveena will be seen on the small screen though; she has previously appeared on shows like “Sahib Biwi Gulam”, “Chhote Miyan”, “Comedy Ka Maha Muqabala” and “Simply Baatien With Raveena”.

However, this reality show is going to be gig and it will have bigger stars as judges. Raveena’s co-judges will be ace choreographer Saroj Khan and none other than the dancing legend Govinda.

According to a source close to the actress, Raveena will be paid a handsome amount by the makers of the show and the Rs.1.25 crore per episode makes her the “highest paid Bollywood actress on TV”.

I guess will need to find out how much the Dhak-Dhak girl (Madhuri Dixit) gets paid on television.
