Bigg Boss 19 Contestants Weekly Pay: Bigg Boss 19 has shown fiery zeal right from the first day of capturing the audience’s attention, with all the 16 housemates. Fans are equally excited about the earnings of each contestant as much as the drama inside the house. The weekly salaries of contestants create a huge disparity between top and new stars.
Ashnoor, Awez, and Baseer are among the most popular faces in this reality series. Having had their careers ramp up with massive fan followings, they are alleged to take home ₹8–12 lakh weekly. Their presence ensures attracting audiences to race through TRPs making them the most costly housemates in the season.
Contestants such as Abhishek, Amaal, Kunickaa, and Nagma fall under the mid-range line category. They are said to earn between ₹3–6 lakh weekly and have average but loyal fan bases. They are highly expected to be consistently entertaining, building depth to the narrative of the show.
Names such as Mridul, Natalia, Neelam, Nehal, Pranit, Tanya, and Zeishan are rumoured to be the lowest-paid housemates. They reportedly earn anywhere between ₹80,000 and ₹2 lakh a week. Incidentally, these underdogs seldom earn much but often surprise everyone by winning audience support through authenticity and emotional connect.
By the way, Farhana was also the first contestant to be evicted by housemates on the same day after entering on Day 1. She’ll be getting low money for having stayed so little time.
The pay matters not only in terms of showcasing a contestant’s market value but also influences curiosity among the watching crowd. Big income earners are bound to performing drama, while newcomers put in the extra effort to get unaided, hence gaining more consideration of worth.
