on what basis they are paid?

How the actor and actress is paid..its based on shooting time or episode based..suppose if the side actor takes the maximum screen space with low payment..then its only advantage to the lead ..cos less work more payment..

It depends on the pH, channel and CINTAA norms..whether it is episodic, or per day or hour of shooting..

I dont know about their payment details but lead actor/actress doesnt have any chance to participate other channel shows

Suppose, you are a production house manager and you're proposing this theorem of yours to a lead actor; first reaction you're gonna receive from the lead is a hard slap on your face.

I really dnt know much abt how they are Paid but one thing I am sure of is -

This kind of situation actually happened. Shakti Arora (male lead of MATSH) was doing NB last year, so it was tough for him to manage schedules for two shows at a time. Someone from PH gave similar kind of idea to him and got slapped in return. 😆 No dedicated actor, be a lead or side actor, would trade his/her work with this sort of arrangement. Because work is like a prayer to an actor. Even practically, it is the work which generates name, fame,money...everything for an actor.

@TM: The actor you hinted had done 3 shows at a time for 6-7 months...2 shows at a time for more than 1.5 years ( and in all of the shows he was in focal point). He didn't compromise a bit with his work even then where many would desperately look for a respite . Your question's answer is there. 😳

In that case (less work-more pay), KP should be working for his family business. He has paid more amount of money in corporate tax as the director of his business than what he's earned as an actor in 2014-15. Seeing the amount of money he paid as coprporate tax, as a business student I'm damn sure he would earn at least 10 times higher with very less workload compared to his current equation.

PS: I have his corpoate tax record issued by Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) of India.

The reason I raised this question is I often used to see ppl say snow white; wet cardboard; hawaldar occupied more screen space than the fl and ml..I hardly found him/her jus 2 minutes in today's episode..so I had a doubt in this issues..thanks for replying..
