We may call TV a small screen, but the earnings of the stars working on it are not small in any case. These actresses who act on TV, especially those who work seven days a week, charge a huge amount as remuneration. Well, despite spending so much money on actors, some TV shows do not become popular. No matter how much twist the makers bring to the story, the shows are unable to perform well on the TRP charts, which makes the show makers worried.
However, it cannot be ignored that these days producers are facing tough competition from OTT platforms. However, just because someone is super famous on social media doesn't mean he or she will be a hit on TV.
But if a popular actor acts on the OTT platform, his price definitely increases. Also, female actors in the TV industry earn more money than male actors.

Despite having popular actors, the show is not guaranteed good TRP.,
Well, the surprising thing is that even after spending a lot of money on popular artists, some TV shows do not become popular. The producers who make these shows remain sad and worried because they have invested so much money, but the shows do not become popular. This is a big problem in the TV world.
For example, the show 'Hum.. Rahe Na Rahe Hum', which started in April this year, went off air within 5 months of its telecast. Three big stars of the TV world – Tina Dutta, Jai Bhanushali and Karanvir Bohra were seen as lead actors in the show. However, it did not do much in terms of TRP due to which the channel had to decide to close the show.
Concerns of TV producers,
The producers behind making a TV show pay for everything – actors, sets, cameras – everything you see on TV. But when actors ask for too much money it also becomes a problem for producers. They worry about spending too much and not earning enough from the show. It's like buying something expensive – you buy it but you're not sure whether it will sell for the right price or not.
Binefer Kohli, producer of 'Bhabiji Ghar Par Hain' says, 'See, this is a topic which does not have a fixed solution. As a producer, till now 99 percent of my actors are very cooperative but the 1 percent who are there sometimes become a nuisance. No matter how much fee you give them, they are never satisfied with it. They forget that the audience likes the character, their character makes them popular. In such situations, we feel a lot of stress.
Replacing any actor in a show is not an easy process. Apart from the fees, there are many other nuances that we have to keep in mind before proceeding. This is the reason why I focus more and more on a good story, good character so that we can give our best to the audience.
social media fame V/S vs tv stardom,
Today many people become famous on social media. He has millions of fans online. But the reality is that being popular on social media does not mean that you will become a hit on TV. Regarding this, Binefer further says, 'What really matters for TV success is how well an actor does his job, how good he is at acting.
Having a good following on social media is great and can help actors connect with fans, but it doesn't guarantee they will get bigger roles in TV shows or more money.'
She adds, 'On the other hand, if actors become popular on TV, it can increase their social media following. People become curious about them, want to know more and start following them online. But still, this does not mean that he will get big fees for his TV work.
Difference in fees between male and female actors,
We often hear that men earn more, but in the world of TV, it's different. Sometimes, female actors earn more money than male actors. A few months ago, while talking about the fees of women, actress Raveena Tandon had said that even though women in films are earning less money than men, but in the OTT platform and TV industry, women artistes have made their mark and they are getting paid more than the actors. Are paid more.
He believes that in the film industry, the role of men as producers and directors is more, but this is not the case in TV and OTT. There are also women producers here, who create good content and cast women as lead actors, due to which actresses get opportunities.
