Chandrika Dixit, famously known as Delhi’s ‘Vada Pav Girl,’ participated in Anil Kapoor’s show, Bigg Boss OTT 3. While her stint on the show brought her more fame, it didn’t match the earnings from her ‘vada pav’ business.
Earnings of Chandrika Dixit from Bigg Boss OTT 3
According to Siasat, Chandrika was paid Rs. 70,000 per episode on Bigg Boss OTT 3, totaling Rs. 2.10 lakh. Despite the impressive sum for her brief time on the show, it’s significantly less than her daily income from her food stall.
Vada Pav Business Earnings
Chandrika, who once worked at Haldiram’s, left her job with her husband to care for their unwell son. This move was both praised and criticized, and at one point, she considered ending her life due to the pressure. On Bigg Boss OTT 3, she revealed that her Vada Pav stall in Delhi earns her Rs. 40,000 daily.
As per FilmiBeat, Adnaan Shaikh, a wild card contestant, charged Rs. 1 lakh per episode. The highest-paid contestant this season was Sai Ketan Rao. The prize money for Bigg Boss OTT 3 is Rs. 25 lakh, consistent with previous seasons.
