Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah (TMKOC) continues to enjoy a massive fan base even after a 16-year run on Indian television. Despite the departure of many beloved actors, including Shailesh Lodha, Disha Vakani, and Raj Anadkat, Asit Kumarr Modi has ensured the show’s continuity. Today, we have an exciting update on Munmun Dutta’s impressive salary growth over the years. Read on for the details!
Munmun Dutta portrays Babita Iyer in TMKOC, the wife of Krishnan Subramaniam Iyer and the secret crush of Dilip Joshi’s character, Jethalal. Munmun has been a part of the show since its inception in 2008 and is now the highest-earning female actress on the Sab TV show.
Many may not know that Munmun Dutta began her career as a child artist, performing as a child singer for Akashvani and Doordarshan. Reflecting on her early days, Munmun once shared, “At the age of 6, I was working as a child singer for Akashvani in Kolkata. I was paid Rs 125 per day.” Although she made her television debut in 2004, it was TMKOC that brought her unprecedented fame and financial success. Her commitment to the show has led to an astounding salary increase of 39,900% over the years. How?
Multiple reports indicate that Munmun now earns between Rs 50,000 to Rs 75,000 per episode of Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah. Even at the lower end, this represents a staggering 39,900% increase. If her remuneration is on the higher end, the percentage growth is even more remarkable!
Meanwhile, Munmun Dutta has faced unnecessary scrutiny, with rumors circulating about her dating co-star Raj Anadkat. The 11-year age gap between the actors sparked controversy and led to social media trolling. Both Munmun and Raj have repeatedly clarified and dismissed these rumors.
