Money for all
Said Shah Rukh Khan, "TV business is worth Rs 15,000 crores as compared to Rs 5,000 crores of business cinema does. There is a lot of money for everyone." Money is gushing into television, with mega bucks being ensured for channels, marketers and production houses. It has made millionaires out of wannabes — be it actors, producers, management graduates, marketing whiz kids and aspirant stars just out of college.
If you are good looking, talented and have the gift of gab, then there is no better career option than television in the present times. A monthly pay packet of Rs 50,000 is assured for a fledgling actor for 25 days of work. For middle level actors the pay averages around Rs 3 lakh per month. In the case of top-notch actors it can be anywhere in the range of Rs 4 to 5 lakh for 20 to 25 days. If an actor also takes up anchoring on the side, there is an additional incentive of Rs 20,000 to 25,000 per episode.
