Gone are the days when television stars were paid peanuts compared to their cinematic counterparts.

In the not-too-distant past, popular TV actors could only expect a meager income per episode, while their film counterparts commanded multi-crore.

However, with the rise of film personalities, game shows, and reality TV, the landscape has dramatically transformed.

As audiences swelled and television became a lucrative industry, money started pouring in, bridging the gap between television and cinema in terms of remuneration.

As a result, it is not unexpected that the highest-paid TV personalities are primarily superstars who host one or more shows.

Personalities like Kapil Sharma, Kangana Ranaut, Amitabh Bachchan, and Karan Johar command a hefty fee of approximately INR 1 lakh or even more for each episode of their respective programs.

This significant figure indicates that their earnings for a season of their television ventures can rival those of some of the highest-paid film stars.

Rupali Ganguly, the star of Anupamaa, has now emerged as one of the top earners in the television industry, charging Rs 3 lakh every episode for the show.

Hina Khan, Ronit Roy, and Ram Kapoor also earn more than Rs 1.5 lakh every episode, solidifying their positions among the well-paid actors in the TV world.

The evolving television landscape has brought forth new opportunities and higher remuneration for talented actors, blurring the lines between the silver screen and the small screen in terms of earnings.
