Actors on TV have often voiced their concerns about the 90-day pay system, because of which many actors struggle to make ends meet. Actor Tinaa Dattaa experienced something similar during her previous show, she finds herself shattered and in a big mess.
The producer refused to pay here Rs 30 lakh after the show went off air. He apparently claimed that he ran the show in a huge loss, which is practically not possible because they had financial backing from the sponsors and advertisers.
The situation became more difficult for her as she had parked her money into various investments and had also bought a house back then. At the back of her mind, she knew that even if the show will go off air, she will still get the remaining salary in the next three months. But the producer refused to pay her money.
She made multiple reminders and even lodged a complaint at the Cine & TV Artists Association (CINTAA). The producers kept her in the lurch for the next three years. Since she had a very good relationship with them, they paid her, but in small instalments.
