TV celebs who opened up about their financial difficulties

Chahat Pandey, who won many hearts with her time on Bigg Boss 18, shared her experience of delayed payments while working on one of her TV shows. In an interview, the actress revealed she had only been paid for one month’s work, while the remaining dues were never cleared.

Chahat said, “Whatever savings I had from my previous shows I exhausted while working on Hamari Bahu Silk. During that time, I kept asking the producers to give my hard-earned money but they kept saying that the channel had not paid them. Things got out of hand for me as I had no money. I had to pay rent for my house. The landlord kept asking me for money and I didn’t have any. How long can anyone wait for their money? Ultimately, the landlord asked me to either give him his money or vacate the place. I had no other option, I went to one of the producer’s offices and cried in front of him. I wept as I was feeling helpless. I pleaded in front of him to give my money, but he did not pay any heed to my request.”
